Introduction
We’re beyond happy to be back delivering our First Aid Training but we understand that there is still an exposure risk to COVID-19. The safety of our participants is our top priority which is why we’ve taken new measures to minimise cross contamination.
Before the Course
- A poly pocket containing the material required for the course will be made up for each participant.
- All mannequins will be disinfected/sanitised before the course along with AEDs.
- The equipment will be set up prior to the course starting so it can begin as soon as everyone has arrived.
During the Course
- Each participant will have their own mannequin for the practical tasks and a face shield will be provided to cover the mannequin’s face as another precaution.
- Participants will be asked in turns to place their used equipment in a designated area which will be collected by the trainer afterwards to maintain distance.
- Any used equipment will be placed in a separate bag to prevent contamination with other equipment.
- Hospital grade Trionic cleaning & disinfection wipes will be available throughout the duration of the course to sanitise equipment which will have a designated bag for disposal.
After the Course
- Our trainers will bring home the equipment to be fully disinfected.
- Mannequins will be sanitised with hospital grade Trionic cleaning & disinfection wipes as well as antiseptic disinfectant.
- All used bandages will be soaked in disinfectant.
- Any bags that contained used equipment will also be disinfected as well as the polly pockets.
- The bag containing waste from the course will be disposed of appropriately.
To Conclude
The safety of everyone on our First Aid Training courses is our top priority and we are taking every precaution we see fit to minimise COVID-19 exposure risks and cross contamination. We ask that only those feeling well and showing no symptoms should attend our courses. We look forward to continuing to deliver First Aid training to our clients as safely as possible.
