How does training work?
First Aid training is delivered in two parts:
Learning (10A) and
Practical (10B).
These can be covered as:
The Full Course
A single full day 10A + 10B sessionThe "Evening Course"
Several shorter sessions (usually on weekday evenings) made up of 3 × 10A sessions, followed by a final 10B sessionThe "Blended Model"
Complete your module 10A learning An e-learning course for 10A, followed by a final session to validate 10A and complete 10B.
The Blended Model" is the most convenient for the majority of adults in the County.
First Aid Theory
We're using Hampshire Scouts' system to deliver the learning portion this module.
This course is designed to take 2.5 hours, but you can start / stop as many times as you need.
Make sure that you fill in the form at the end of the module (so that your details are sent to us!)
Please ensure you watch the videos and read the information as we monitor completion times.
Remember:
Module validation is covered as part of the 10B course!
First Aid Practical
Details of face-to-face Module 10B will be sent once you have completed Module 10A.
You can also book onto courses via Eventbrite
Remember...
The risk assessment for all activities should include First Aid:
Is there access to somebody with suitable knowledge and a current qualification for potential accidents / injuries identified?
Are the first aid materials identified in the risk assessment available (incl. at every meeting.)
There should be an accident book (or equivalent) at all meetings:
Is one available to every activity group leaving their usual meeting place?
Do all volunteers know where it is located and your procedures?
The GLNE First Aid Training Team
