WHO’S IT FOR?
The minimum standard for First Aid training is ‘First Response’, a course designed specifically for adult leaders in The Scout Association and Girlguiding UK, based on the situations and issues that occur within those roles. This course is not externally recognised and the training provided does not provide adults with a full First Aid qualification. It is important to note, however, that ‘First Response’ is the minimum standard set and that The Scout Association both recognises and encourages its members to undertake equivalent or more advanced qualifications.
COURSE OVERVIEW
The course is a minimum of six hours, and covers the following topics:
- The Principles of First Aid and Initial Response (arriving at and managing an incident).
- Emergency Life Support (DRABC, and the recovery position).
- CPR, including technique for children.
- Shock
- Bleeding (major and minor)
- Causes and treatment of unconsciousness.
- Heat exhaustion, heat-stroke and hypothermia.
- Burns and scalds.
- Fractures and soft tissue injuries.
- Minor injuries (for example, cuts, grazes and nosebleeds)
- Meningitis.
ASSESSMENT & ACCREDITATIONS
Individuals will receive a certificate on completion of the course which needs to be produced at Warrant renewal.
