Saturday 15th October 2022 2.00pm to 4.00pm
Braybrooke Community Hall Halls for Hire Makepiece Road, Bracknell RG42 2HG
1st Response is Girlguiding's own first aid course, it is suitable for aged 14 plus.
It will train you to provide first aid to members in emergencies - in or outside of your unit meeting place. The course was created specifically for members of Girlguiding and The Scout Association. It is not recognised as a first aid qualification outside of Girlguiding or Scouting.
To have the course recorded on GO as complete you will need to attend the face to face session and 2 x virtual sessions and complete an e learning
1st response is split into 3 x 2 hour sessions:
Module 1 Life support: delivered as face to face
Module 2 Truama and injury: delivered live on line
Module 3 Major illness: delivered live on line.
You must book onto all 3 sessions and complete the e learning within 3 months of each other. It is good practice to complete Module 1 before Modules 2 and 3.
If you have a first aid certificate you may not need to complete the 1st response course. If your certificate covers all of this list and was at least 6 hours in duration you will only need to complete the Girlguiding first response e-learning.
The cost of the 1st response course is £20 and covers all parts. You will be emailed on how you can pay this. It is a legitimate unit expense and should be covered by your unit budget. Please do not let the cost put you off attending and either speak with your unit leader or email countyadmin@girlguidingroyalberkshire.org.uk
