Emergency Response

Who is this course for?

Key personnel who have responsibility and desire to step up in the event of a disaster. Some prior first aid training is recommended.

Objectives

To prepare key personnel as best they can for the aftermath of a major terrorist or emergency incident. This critical time period known as the ‘dead zone’. This is the time after a major incident has just happened and before the emergency services arrive.

Course Content

Throughout the course, delegates will learn how to:

• Relate to consequences of explosions and terrorist attacks
• Prioritise, treat and remove casualties
• Co-ordinate with The Emergency Services
• Assume critical roles if the emergency services are delayed or cannot access the disaster scene
• Operate 'Command and Control' - the chain of survival
• Revisit or create a Company Emergency Response plan

Course Benefits

In an emergency situation where an explosion or similar incident has occurred, a number of people are often left with injuries which if basic first aid is applied to there and then, will allow them to live.

In other words if the emergency services are in any way delayed, the delegates from this course could be in a position to apply critical first aid until further help arrives. This action can simply mean the difference between life and death.
