🚑 Emergency First Aid at Work or Sports First Aid...do you need one or both?

It’s easy to think all first aid courses are the same, but they’re not!

Emergency First Aid at Work is designed for the workplace. It covers essential emergency care such as CPR, AED use, choking, bleeding and dealing with an unresponsive casualty.

SYFA Approved Sports First Aid is designed specifically for sport, with a focus on injuries and situations that can happen during physical activity. Including concussion, fractures, soft-tissue injuries and suspected spinal injuries.

So which do you need?

💼Workplace? You may need Emergency First Aid at Work
⚽Coach or volunteer in youth sport? You may need Sports First Aid
🤸‍♀️Working in a sports setting? You may need both

They have different purposes, and one qualification doesn't automatically replace the other.

Not sure what you need? Check your employer or club's requirements, or get in touch and we’ll be happy to point you in the right direction☺️

🥗 FOOD HYGIENE - NEWLY UPDATED - 1ST OCTOBER 🫧

We are delivering our improved food hygiene course on the 1st of October at GSR Training. If you handle or serve food in any capacity, you should complete your food hygiene training to keep yourself and your customers safe. This could range from working in a kitchen in a care home to working in a large restaurant. This is also an open course so can be booked by groups, individuals, organisations or those that are self-employed.

This course gives staff the knowledge and confidence to handle food safely, maintain high standards and spot potential risks before they become problems. Ensure that your company is compliant and that customers have trust in your business.

This summer at GSR Training has had our trainers travelling throughout Aberdeen and Angus to deliver training to a wide range of organisations.

A highlight from earlier last month was Kelsey having the opportunity to travel down to Dundee to deliver 'Epilepsy Awareness' training for a local charity, Kelsey said:

"I loved spending some time in Dundee to deliver training for one of their local charities, and it is great to see GSR Training growing across Scotland" 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
