RSBA1 Basic First Aid Course

This emergency medical care course introduces you to first aid techniques. We provide instructions for administering immediate medical help in various situations before the arrival of professional emergency help. Basic first aid is a useful skill that can help those around you and represents a valuable addition to your professional portfolio. First aid requires preparation through training that you can use to make suitable assessments and administer the most appropriate response.

The course explains how an unconscious patient requires different medical care to one who is awake. We take you through the steps of ‘DRAB’ (which stands for ‘Danger, Response, Airway and Breathing’), a protocol that can help save critical seconds and make a profound difference to the health of the patient. We show you how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) used in cases of cardiovascular distress or drowning. The course establishes the importance of the recovery position for unconscious patients.

We then list what you should have in your first aid kit. An emergency response may be required anywhere, particularly at home or in the classroom or workplace. First aid skills and an accessible and well-stocked kit allow you to be prepared for medical emergencies. Conditions differ across borders so we suggest that you refer to your country’s first aid protocols to gain practical local knowledge. This course suits anyone but is particularly useful for parents, teachers and health and safety officers. Sign up to learn basic first aid techniques and be prepared for medical emergencies. Your skills could save a life!
