First Aid Training
The field of First Aid can be broad and sometimes overwhelming. At FabTraining, we stay committed to keeping up with the latest changes in workplace First Aid legislation, as well as the roles and responsibilities of everyone involved.
The first step in selecting the right First Aid course is understanding the specific needs of your environment. Here are some key questions to consider:
- Is the environment low-risk or high-risk?
- Is First Aid primarily needed for adults, children, or both?
- What level of training is appropriate for the setting?
- How many First Aiders are required?
However, our team is always available to provide expert advice and ensure you make the best choice for your needs!

Our comprehensive program offers thorough training in basic first aid techniques including CPR, wound care and handling medical emergencies such as heart attacks and strokes.

Outdoor First Aid
Outdoor and Activity first aid courses often focus on teaching participants how to assess and manage common injuries and illnesses that can occur in the wilderness. During this extended 2-day course we look at how to improvise with limited resources, make quick decisions in challenging situations, and provide effective care until professional help arrives. Learners will develop the skills and knowledge needed to deal with a range of outdoor first aid situations, including: how to manage multiple casualties, insulating and providing shelter to casualties, cardiac arrest, blood loss, choking, extremes of temperature, unconsciousness, fractures, head and spinal injuries, drowning, burns, head-to-toe survey, medical conditions and more. The qualification is obtained by successfully completing a series of practical and multiple choice theory assessments.
