• administer first aid to a casualty who is choking;
• use of available equipment;
• administer first aid to a casualty who is wounded and bleeding;
• assess the situation and circumstances in order to act safely, promptly and effectively in an emergency;
• administer first aid to a casualty who is unconscious (including seizure);
• provide appropriate first aid for minor injuries (including small cuts, grazes and bruises, minor burns and scalds, small splinters).

Automated External Defibrillator (AED) practical demonstrations and activities on a training AED are now included on this course.

This syllabus is set by the HSE. If you require additions to the syllabus these can be added on to the delivery time.

For example if you have a colleague who is diabetic it would be worthwhile adding this to the course so that the First Aiders know how to deal with a diabetic emergency.
