Bite Size First Aid - Course Overview

This short, bite sized training session is designed as a taster in emergency first aid procedures for adults, children, and babies. It provides a simple introduction to managing common first aid situations, helping participants feel more confident responding in the early stages of an incident.

Training covers how to manage a first aid incident, place an unconscious casualty into the recovery position, perform CPR for adults, children, and babies, and recognise and respond to choking and seizures. A question-and-answer session is also included, giving participants the chance to clarify key points and build understanding in a relaxed learning environment.

Who Is This Course For?

This course is ideal for anyone looking for a basic introduction to first aid, including parents, carers, workplace staff, and individuals with little or no previous first aid experience.

It works well as a taster for those considering more in-depth first aid training in the future, offering a good starting point before progressing to courses such as Emergency First Aid at Work or Emergency Paediatric First Aid.

I found this course engaging. The trainer was professional, but approachable and friendly allowing me to feel comfortable to ask questions and be involved. The use of videos helped to see real situations - GREAT IDEA !!

Did my 2 day FAW re-qualification course this week with Brian. Enjoyed the whole course so much I may be looking to book my Paediatric re-qualification with First Response too. Well worth the journey up to Walsall - thank you

Absolutely fantastic! Can not recommend you enough. Put some humour and practicality into the days, but learned everything we needed to on a serious note. Thank you!

Level 3 Paediatric First Aid course
Tony, Managing Director, Walsall
May I express my sincere thanks in the course taken this week which I earlier today obtained my FAW. From the initial contact with yourselves the service provided was very prompt, efficient and professional without any faults, issues or hiccups which seems to be the norm these days. On to the actual course. The tutors (Brian & Mick Dennant) delivering the training was 1st class in that not only did they keep the flow going but interesting and to the point without any lethargic or boredom points that can arise in some training. They are not only a credit to First Response but also contenders for the stage should they wish a change in career direction as the humour was uplifting and consistent.

I just wanted to reiterate how good the trainer was. All the staff came in to see me afterwards and said it was the best First Aid course they had attended. One of the main positives was that he made it specific to their jobs and environment. Also, the blended sessions seemed to work really well. Kind regards Karen

Please can I ask you to pass on my compliments for the first aid training yesterday at Reginald Mitchell Court. Glenn Hulse the trainer presented the course very well, we were all very impressed, and we enjoyed the day which is what matters.
Care Home First Aid - Bespoke course
Lisa, Walsall
Over the years I have attended many first aid courses, however after this one I feel I have gained the most knowledge and feel confident when dealing with any first aid. Thank you.
Level 3 Paediatric First Aid course
Natalie,
I just wanted to praise Mick for the 2 day first aid refresher course that I attended on 3rd and 4th April 2019. I found that he was a lovely man and teacher and made the course really enjoyable. I have come away feeling that I have learnt something new and gave me the confidence and assistance in order for me to put this into practice in real life. I feel properly trained thanks to Mick and able to cope with anybody that needs first aid. I can't thank Mick enough for what he has taught me.

I feel more confident about my first aid than after previous courses I have been on. I'm impressed at how well Glenn coped with targeting content to a "Unique" team of people! He's a good sport!
