PDFEFAW and FAW Annual Refresher
Although an annual refresher is not a legal requirement, the HSE strongly recommends that First Aiders undertake annual refresher training within any three-year certification period of First Aid at Work or Emergency First Aid at Work.
The FAW and EFAW refresher is a 1/2 day course.
Candidates should demonstrate their competence to:
- assess the situation in an emergency;
- administer first aid to a casualty who is unconscious (including seizure);
- administer cardiopulmonary resuscitation;
- administer first aid to a casualty who is wounded and bleeding;
- administer first aid to a casualty who is suffering from shock.
