First Aid Training

Health and social care workers may be involved in an accident or incident that requires First Aid support.

First Aid is a mandatory training course that should be completed before supporting vulnerable individuals, in a professional capacity.

This training applies to all health and social care workers that work in settings such as Care Homes, Day Centres, or supporting an individual in their own home. This also applies to hospital staff at health care assistant level, unpaid and voluntary workers.

At Caremark the training is designed to give social care workers the underpinning knowledge and requirements needed to use effective First aid practice when working professionally with vulnerable individuals. In addition to the theoretical training all out staff undergo practical training in the office including how to perform CPR.
