The basic life support course is the most basic, First Aid course we offer at Siren Training. This first aid training helps you meet the requirements set out in the Health and Safety regulations of 1981.

The HSE recommend that all First Aiders attend a yearly basic life support course and even though this is not mandatory, when the HSE recommends something it can only be ignored at your peril.

The majority of our clients work in the following industries:

• Corporate
• Retail
• Education
• Low risk sports environment

Please do not get this refresher course confused with the 2 day re-qualification First Aid at Work course which is for those individuals with a 3 day First Aid at Work certificate which is about to expire or has recently expired.

The basic life support course covers the following subjects:

• Priority of Treatment
• CPR
• Unconscious Casualty
• Shock
• Choking
• Bleeding
• AED

In line with the HSE’s strong recommendations, Siren Training offer a half day First Aid refresher for anyone who has completed a 3 day First Aid at Work, 1-day Emergency First Aid at Work or Paediatric First Aid course. We are quite happy for you to sit on the course even of you don’t hold a current certificate. We encourage people to learn these vital skills and wouldn’t exclude anyone.

Our main focus is ensuring that you are confident enough in your First Aid ability to tackle any life-saving incident with confidence to make a difference. After 1 year it is difficult to remember the key life-saving techniques and processes that give you that confidence. Our emergency services trainers will guide you every step of the way.

Our basic life support course is an annual First Aid refresher course in London that runs for approximately 3 hours. We start sharply at 10 am. Please try your best not to be late. Please arrive 15 min early to grab a cup of tea and a biscuit before we get started.

The trainers employed by Siren are presently working or ex emergency service professionals. Each trainer has many years of life saving experiences and techniques to share with you.
