1st Response is Girlguiding’s own first aid course
The syllabus has now changed and can be delivered as a 6-hour training course OR as three 2-hour sessions online. Plus, an E-learning module about forms etc and finally the face-to-face practical module.
MODULE ONE* These 3 sessions are
- 1) LIFE SUPPORT
- 2) TRAUMA & INJURY
- 3) MAJOR ILLNESS
MODULE TWO* Is an online E-learning which covers
- A) PLANNING & PREPERATION
- B) RESPONDIING TO AN ACCIDENT/INCIDENT
- C) WHAT HAPPENS AFTER AN ACCIDENT/INCIDENT (which can be completed before or after module one)
MODULE THREE* Is the face-to-face practical session, to complete the qualification.
NB: As from January 2021 Girlguiding will be removing the option of the 2-hour refresher training. The full course will need to be completed every 3 years (This includes all the above modules * * *)
