What This Course Covers
If you work or spend time in the outdoors, having a good understanding of first aid is essential. Being able to treat an injury or prolong life can become vital when help is further away.
We have spent years refining our outdoor courses and have built a fantastic reputation for delivering highly relevant and engaging training. Our Outdoor first aid courses in Swindon have been developed by our head instructors who have backgrounds in international mountaineering and tactical conflict medicine. This course is very practical and we use scenario training to reinforce learning which builds real confidence and empowers candidates to act when emergencies arise.
Difficult and stressful situations can become even more dangerous when you are in harsh environments or unpredictable weather. Having the appropriate skill set can save your life and the lives of others around you.
This 2-day course is an advanced first aid course aimed at individuals either working as instructors or teachers in outdoors, remote or foreign environments or for individuals that work or spend time in remote locations looking to really further their understanding of first aid. This course exceeds the recommendations of the HSE 2 Day Outdoor First Aid course syllabus and is valid for a period of 3 years.
This qualification exceeds the syllabus requirements of the national standard 16 hour outdoor course and is recognised by all main outdoor governing bodies for instructors. If you have any questions regarding the relevant qualification for your area of work, please either speak with your governing body or give us a call today.
All of our instructors are highly trained and experienced with real life emergencies and they bring this knowledge to their courses.
