Seniors First Aid Course
2 Hour Course
We are all living longer and healthier lives. However unfortunately as we age we are more prone to developing certain conditions and illnesses. Our seniors first aid course explains the signs and symptoms of some of these more common conditions as well as giving you the first aid knowledge to manage them until medical help arrives. Aimed at those over 65 or those who have friends and relatives in this age bracket and would like to be more confident and prepared to provide help should you ever need to.
Our Seniors First Aid workshop is delivered by Kim an experienced Nurse. Kim spent the first half of her career prior to becoming a Public Health Nurse working within services that supported those over the age of 65. Kim is also a qualified First Aid Teacher and uses her training and professional experience to prepare you for potential first aid situations. A certificate of attendance is awarded at the end of the course. Along with a mini first aid kit to take away with you.
What to Expect
The Seniors First Aid course runs for approximately 2 hours. Workshops are run in small groups to ensure that you can get the most out of your day. Allowing time for questions and interaction. A mini first aid kit is also included in the price of the course.
The aim of the workshop is to help you feel more prepared and confident. Hopefully you will not have to use any of the information you are given on this course, however should the need arise you will have the knowledge to respond effectively which could be potentially lifesaving.
