In every business, there are certain risks and dangers; one risk that is present in almost all businesses across the UK is fire. A fire can break out in any premises if the correct safety measures are not followed.
To combat this risk, it’s important that your employees have up-to-date fire safety training. This protects your team and your premises from a fire breaking out, and best equips you to deal with one if it does happen.
When someone suffers a cardiac arrest, immediate Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is vital for the best chance at survival. CPR acts as a manual pump for the heart, continuing to push blood to vital organs while the heart’s normal rhythm has stopped.
Yet is CPR by itself enough to revive someone who has suffered Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA)?
As one of the UK’s leading First Aid training providers, Imperative understands the need for every person to have the skills to save a life if called upon.
That’s why we hold free monthly courses in our local community to educate people in basic Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED).
These courses, held at the Hamilton Davies Trust in Cadishead, are open to everyone in the local area and are conducted by one of Imperative’s experienced trainers.
While the importance of traditional first aid is widely known and understood, it is becoming increasingly clear to employers that safeguarding their teams’ mental wellbeing is just as vital.
This is known as mental health first aid. As Mental Health Awareness Day is approaching, we have put together a guide on supporting mental health first aid in the workplace.
