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 HWSETA accredited in conjunction with Training for Upliftment 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.
We offer First Aid Training from beginner phase up to advanced Level 3 Training. Our courses includes both theory and practical’s to equip learners with both the knowledge and skill to perform life saving first aid. Levels can be attended individually or can be completed as a combination course for example: Level 1-2, Level 1-3 or Level 2-3 depending on your personnel requirements.
