This QA Level 2 Award in citizenAID (RQF) course is a half-day course to teach
the skills and knowledge needed in case one finds themselves in the middle of a
terrorist attack. The skills are also usable in any event where there might be
either multiple or severely injured people.
PAST ATTENDEES SAID:
Attended the citizen aid course this week, absolutely brilliant.
Whilst we all hope that we are never involved in a major incident, the big
question though would be are we prepared, what would we do?
This course discusses various incidents and some are uncomfortable to think
about, but if something happened most people panic, after this course you are
likely to stay calm, take control and above all save lives.
This course is for everyone due to the current threats in the world, However
large companies especially should consider training their staff, it may save
your life or someone close to you.
Highly recommended, well presented and really interesting.
BENEFITS OF THIS COURSE:
* Following several terrorist attacks that have claimed the lives of countless
victims and left many in hospital with critical injuries, both in the UK and
abroad, it has been clear that normal, everyday people can save each other's
lives with the right levels of training
* This course, together with the citizenAID Phone App
[https://www.citizenaid.org/home] and a pocket guide, has been designed by
both highly experienced military and civilian clinicians
* This course will teach you what to do during a terrorist-related, or 'simply'
a serious accident, where casualties can suffer from severe trauma. It is
specifically designed to help people react safely, prioritise the injured and
give life-saving first aid to the casualties
* RUN - HIDE - TELL - TREAT
* Watch this short, 4 ½ minute video by the Counter Terrorism Police UK on how
to stay as safe as possible during firearms and weapons attacks
* Whether work is causing or aggravating mental health problems, employers have
a legal responsibility toward their employees
* Fortunately, these events are rare, but when they do happen, being prepared
can save your life, and that of others
* Where a risk is identified, steps must be taken to remove it or reduce it as
far as reasonably practicable
* This half-day course gives people a good awareness of mental health in the
workplace
* Better still, of course, is to do this citizenAID course with us, which will
help a lot more!
