First Aid Courses and Training in Oxford

You end up with a named first aider on the rota, a certificate in the file and a team that knows where the AED is and how to use it.

Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training is run by Rebecca Sullivan, with in-house trainers who are never outsourced, delivering first aid at work services Oxford employers keep on file, backed by over 50 years of combined trainer experience.

Call Rebecca on 07771 680794 for dates and a quote for your team.

First aid courses and training in Oxford are delivered at your own premises, on your own floor, with the qualification your workplace has to hold on file. Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training brings the manikins, the trainer and the paperwork to you.

Course Options

Most Oxford workplaces we walk into already have a green cabinet on the wall, a box of blue plasters and a foil blanket nobody has touched. The kit is rarely the problem. The gap is a named first aider who has knelt on the floor and worked through a primary survey on a manikin with a trainer watching.

The course list covers the ground a working employer actually needs:

• Emergency First Aid at Work: one day, about six hours, up to 12 delegates, 3-year certificate.
• First Aid at Work: the fuller qualification for higher-risk sites and larger headcounts.
• Paediatric first aid for nurseries, preschools, childminders and school staff.
• Defibrillator AED training and CPR practice, including pad placement and shock delivery.
• Mental health first aid for managers and staff who pick up problems early.

Content runs through CPR, AED use, choking, shock, burns and scalds, the recovery position, casualty assessment, hygiene technique and incident reporting. Life-threatening bleed control is now trained on every course, tourniquet and packing included. The first aid courses are accredited by FAIB. The mental health courses are accredited by FAA. Certification runs three years and is recognised by HSE, Ofsted and the DfE.

One list, no guesswork.

How to Book in Oxford

Oxford premises are a mixed bag: stone-fronted offices off the ring road, science park units with long corridors, kitchens where the only clear floor is between the pass and the walk-in. We ask about the room before the date, because a CPR session needs floor space for manikins, not a boardroom table bolted down the middle.

Booking is a phone call to 07771 680794 or a message through the site. Rebecca will ask headcount, risk level and which certificate your assessor or inspector expects to see. If you are searching for a first aid course close to home in Oxford, the trainer travels to you rather than the other way round, so nobody loses half a day to parking near the city centre.

Aim2Aid Ltd is a registered company, number 16319053, based at 70 Fountain Gardens in Windsor. Reviews sit on the widget on the site if you want to read them before you commit. Training happens at your premises only, so there is no open course to slot a single delegate into.

Paediatric and Specialist First Aid

A nursery floor is a different environment to a warehouse: low chairs, foam matting, a sleep room, and infant manikins that need different hand position and different breath volume than an adult. We train on infant and child manikins on site, in the room the staff work in, which is where the muscle memory sticks.

Paediatric first aid covers febrile convulsions, choking in a child and an infant, meningitis signs, anaphylaxis and auto-injector use, head injury and the recovery position adapted for a small casualty. Ofsted recognition matters here, and the 3-year certificate satisfies it.

Our Emergency First Aid at Work course includes paediatric content at no extra cost. That suits mixed settings such as a leisure site, a village hall office or a workshop with an apprentice under 18. Rebecca built that in deliberately.

Children are not small adults.

Emergency First Aid at Work

On a busy trade site the casualty is usually on concrete, in the wet, with a saw still running somewhere behind you. Emergency First Aid at Work is built for that: scene safety first, then response, airway, breathing, then a decision. One day, about six hours, up to 12 delegates, 3-year certificate, FAIB accredited.

The day covers the unresponsive casualty, CPR with an AED, choking, severe bleeding and catastrophic bleed control, shock, burns, seizures and record keeping under your accident book. The Health and Safety Executive expects the level of first aid provision to follow your own needs assessment, so we talk through headcount, shift pattern and hazard before the booking is confirmed. That keeps the qualification matched to your business rather than bought blind.

Whether you need first aid courses and training in Oxford or a first aid course in Windsor, we cover the whole area and the surrounding areas alongside it.

A blended option is available on this course: practical assessment at your premises with the theory completed online beforehand. It still runs to one day of contact for the practical elements where required, still up to 12 delegates, still the same 3-year certificate. It suits shift teams who cannot lose a full day together.

Training Formats and Group Booking

Twelve delegates need roughly the footprint of a canteen with the tables pushed back, plus a socket for the projector and a wipeable floor for the manikins. That is the practical limit we work to, and it is why we ask for a photo of the room when a site is tight.

Group bookings work well for a whole team, a single department or a couple of trades sharing a unit. Training for your staff on your own site means the scenarios use your layout, your AED cabinet and your fire exits. For your workplace that is worth more than a generic classroom run-through.

Whether you need first aid courses and training in Oxford or first aid training in Reading, we cover the whole area, and surrounding areas too.

Every trainer is in-house. We never outsource a session to a subcontractor. Rebecca Sullivan leads the team and sets the standard on every course, though she does not personally deliver every session. Between them the trainers hold over 50 years of combined experience, and it shows in how they handle a room of tradespeople who have seen a real incident already.

Refresher and requalification dates are worth diarising twelve weeks before expiry, so nobody drops off the rota. Ask when you book and we will note the renewal window with you.

Book it once, keep it current.
