Over a focused three-day period, Allan Shaw Experience First Aid delivered multiple Emergency First Aid at Work training sessions for the team at Flavourfresh, a company based in Hesketh Bank near Preston.
Led by experienced trainer Allan Shaw, these one-day accredited courses equipped 36 members of staff with essential life-saving skills to respond confidently and quickly in the event of a workplace accident or emergency.
What Does Emergency First Aid at Work Involve?
The one-day course is designed for low to medium-risk workplaces and covers all key areas required to meet Health and Safety Executive (HSE) standards. Delivered in an engaging, hands-on format, the training included:
-
Assessing a casualty and the situation quickly and calmly
-
Performing adult CPR and using an Automated External Defibrillator (AED)
-
Managing unconscious casualties and those suffering from seizures
-
Controlling serious bleeding, treating burns and shock
-
Responding to choking incidents
-
Recording incidents and understanding employer responsibilities
Why It Matters: First Aid in the Workplace
For a busy operation like Flavourfresh, where staff work across multiple departments, having trained first aiders on-site is essential to ensuring a safe working environment.
By completing the course, each of the 36 staff members is now qualified to:
-
Provide immediate care during an accident
-
Support injured colleagues until emergency services arrive
-
Act as a vital link in their workplace’s safety procedures
