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!
