Electrical Industry First Aid - Course Overview

This course helps electricians develop the awareness and hands-on ability needed to respond to medical emergencies in electrical working environments. It focuses on the immediate actions required in the early stages of an incident, supporting candidates to manage a casualty safely until a qualified first aider or emergency services arrive.

The training reflects the risks commonly encountered in the electrical industry, helping participants make fast, effective decisions in high-risk situations. It also builds confidence in recognising emergencies, providing initial care, and supporting workplace safety during critical moments.

Who Is This Course For?

This course is ideal for establishments that already have designated First Aid at Work trained first aiders in place and want to provide additional emergency response training for their electrical teams.

It's an ideal option for all electricians and apprentices who are more likely to be with the casualty at the most important time, and until the arrival of the qualified first aider or the emergency services.

Excellent refresher course taking into consideration our existing knowledge and experience
Anaphylaxis and CPR Course
The trainer's mixture of subtle black country humour, relaxed persona, positive non-verbal communication and technically accurate information, enhanced with his personal experiences, made this man both a pleasure to listen to and learn from.

Please can you kindly pass on my thanks to Tense and also those of all the candidates who enjoyed the course on Tuesday which she ran in Kibworth. I have received very positive feedback from them and they all have said that they learned a lot and benefited from her experience.
Level 2 Food Course
M. Hoult - Foster Carer, Leicestershire
Style of delivery was great, made a difficult subject simple and a "can do approach". When I say simple, I meant it was broken down into common sense - which is what it should be.

Paediatric First Aid course
The First Response (First Aid) trainer started the session and literally within seconds had established a strong, warm, rapport with the delegates.
Shirley, Derby
Glenn was a very knowledgeable & competent trainer. He was friendly & explained everything to a level to suit all present. He coped with all the unusual questions & scenarios which we have come across excellently. I would highly recommend him as a trainer for groups of all abilities & feel he should be commended for his hard work.
