From October 1st 2013, it is no longer a requirement for the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) to approve first aid training and qualifications. Businesses now have more flexibility to manage their provision of first aid in the workplace.
First aid providers are required to be prepared at any time to demonstrate how they maintain standards and satisfy HSE criteria. It is therefore down to the individual to identify and select competent training providers, and if required produce evidence to support this process.
We comply with the HSE GEIS3 requirements, ALL our instructors hold a quality assurance, teaching and medical qualification. ALL are fully DBS checked to an enhanced level.

As a practising GP or Dentist you must demonstrate appropriate continuing professional development (CPD), to keep up to date for each part of your scope of practice. We provide a wide range of high quality courses and events to support your continuing professional development. Choose either a 2 or 3 hour session which allows clinicians earn required CPD hours and to keep up to date with the latest evidence and new guidelines. All our training is delivered by serving NHS Paramedics, Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and retired frontline staff. Sessions can cover topics of your choice, or our standard BLS session which covers Safe Use of the AED, and Anaphylaxis for Gp's or for Dental practices we also cover emergency medical drugs. Sessions can also be tailored for practice support staff. Please email or call us for more details and to discuss your needs. Depending on the size of your group and the space available will determine if we need one or two instructors. We are happy to tailor your course to your requirements. Certificates are issued by Paramedical First Aid North Derbyshire and are valid for 1 year with appropriate CPD hours on the certificate.

Each year approximately 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health condition and at least 1 in 6 employees experience common mental health problems in the workplace. Research has shown that work is the biggest cause of stress which can stop people performing at their best. Mental health conditions are often hidden due to stigma and fear of discrimination and research has shown that a culture of fear and silence around mental health is costly to employers. The HSE guidance " First aid needs assessments" refers to mental health in the workplace. This 12-hour qualification provides learners with the knowledge to recognise a wide range of mental health conditions and learn about the support/therapy provided by professional healthcare providers. This popular course is emotive so as such we provide the tissues. As Ambulance staff we encounter many mental health patients and over the years have built up a lot of experience and knowledge which we will pass on to each learner to make the course more interactive with real life examples.
