🧭 Your Specific Needs

When selecting a course, start by considering your specific needs:
• Are you looking for general first aid knowledge, or do you need training for a specific workplace or situation?

⏳ Course Duration

Think about how much time you have:
• Do you have time for a comprehensive multi-day course, or would a one-day emergency first aid course be more suitable?
At Wimbledon Training, we offer flexible schedules to accommodate your availability.

🎓 Certification Requirements

Check if you need a specific certification for your job or industry. Many workplaces in the UK require certified first aiders to meet Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards.

📋 Course Content

Ensure the course covers the skills most relevant to your situation:
• CPR
• AED use
• Managing specific injuries like burns or fractures
Selecting a course tailored to your environment ensures you gain the most applicable skills.

👐 Practical Component

A good course offers hands-on practice, not just theory.
Look for courses with a strong practical component where you can physically practice life-saving skills. Confidence in performing these actions is essential during real-life emergencies.
