🚑 First aid guidance has changed — has your training kept up?

UK Resuscitation Council guidance was updated last year. That means some first aid course content is now out of date.

But being up to date isn’t just about having the latest manual.

Real emergencies can be messy, pressured and unpredictable. They can’t be fully taught by reading slides or reciting a book.

When choosing a first aid provider, it’s worth asking:

✔️ Are they teaching to the latest guidance?
✔️ Do their instructors have real-world emergency experience?
✔️ Can they explain why decisions are made — not just what to do?

Because when it really matters, experience counts just as much as certification.

Whether you're part way through a qualification period and need some updates, or looking to get yourself qualified - contact us to see how we can help you and your teams remain confident and competent.

If you are with someone who is unresponsive, call 999 and make sure you put it on speakerphone.

Performing CPR requires two hands 🤲🏽 using speakerphone lets you follow instructions from the emergency operator while giving lifesaving chest compressions.

This is actually quite important, and often overlooked - there's no point in defibrillating the spleen..... 👇

Defib pad placement is important. Positioning the pads correctly can double someone’s chance of survival.

While these two examples appear similar, side A is the correct way to place the pads. The key difference is that the pad on the left hand side of the chest has been placed on the side of the rib cage, closer to the armpit.
