Relevant to your workplace
Primary-care scenarios, not a generic classroom course.
Doctors, nurses, healthcare assistants, reception staff and practice managers all have a part to play in an emergency. Training together allows the team to rehearse who calls for help, who brings the equipment and how care continues until the ambulance arrives.
Where appropriate, the instructor can work with your own AED and emergency equipment and run scenarios in the rooms where an incident could occur. If you have a recent concern or a particular learning need, it can be discussed before the session.
