First aid delivery · a Quality Agency service

First aid units are high volume, short duration and heavily scrutinised, which is a combination that punishes shortcuts.

First aid delivery, currency of trainers, and the equipment and supervision requirements that are most often found non compliant.

IWhat it is

First aid delivery.

First aid delivery, currency of trainers, and the equipment and supervision requirements that are most often found non compliant. We work with the organisation you actually are, not the one the policy manual describes, because the gap between those two is usually where the problem lives.

IIWhat is included

Three things, done properly.

i

Delivery review

Session structure, duration and supervision against what the units actually require.

ii

Trainer currency

Currency evidence for first aid trainers, which is checked more often here than almost anywhere else.

iii

Equipment and ratios

Manikins, defibrillation trainers and supervision ratios, and the records that show them.

IIIWhat goes wrong

The two failures we see most.

Neither of these is exotic. Both are common enough that it is worth checking your own arrangements against them before anyone else does.

Compressing the practical

Reducing contact time until the practical demonstration cannot properly occur is the single most common finding in first aid delivery.

Online only for a physical skill

CPR requires observed physical performance. A theory assessment cannot substitute for it.

Tell us what has happened, or what you think is about to. Either is a reasonable place to start.
