At Life Med we believe that nobody should die because they needed FIRST AID and didn’t get it.

We aim to train as many people as possible, so they can be the difference between

a life lost, AND A LIFE SAVED.

Does your company and staff comply to the labour act legislation to ensure that safety at the workplace complies with the requirements in the act? At Life Med this compliance is important to us, but more important is that we have designed our First Aid training to give you, the First Responder the confidence to respond in any medical emergency so that you may save a LIFE and not just receive a certificate. All our First aid courses are registered at the Department of Labour and we aim to provide the highest quality of training on every course. Our training instructors are qualified Medical Professionals and are all registered with the Health Professionals Council of SA. All of our first aid courses are accredited by the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University in order for medical practitioners to claim CPD points.

Level 1 First aid is the minimum training requirement to comply with the OHS act and Department of Labour requirements to ensure safety at the workplace. All levels include CPR and choking as part of the curriculum. All of our first aid certificates are valid for 3 years.

Discovery members can earn Discovery Vitality points for First Aid courses.

This course is designed that in terms of the General safety Regulations 3 (4) (d) of the OHS Act of 1993, companies will have the needed training in place should the use of fire equipment be needed.

Every practitioner registered at the HPCSA is enforced to ensure that they have accumulated CPD points (CEU’s) to ensure that they maintain their knowledge and skill related to their profession as a BLS, ILS, ALS or MP.
