Stay safe in the forest with our dedicated first aid course.
Platinum Safety is an approved Lantra Awards Training Centre based in Co. Limerick and we currently have a number of approved Instructors. We provide Lantra +F Training Services in Limerick, Cork, Galway, Clare, Tipperary, Dublin and Nationwide on request.
Overview in Brief
If you work as a team in a forest setting, you’ll know there are special dangers to look out for. In the event of an emergency, you will need the necessary skills and training to keep you and your colleagues safe.
The Finer Details
This is a three day 1st Aid At Work + F training and assessment course. You’ll practice and learn the skills you need to be able to give first aid before the professionals take over.
Platinum Safety’s forestry First Aid course will build on your knowledge and understanding from the Emergency First Aid at Work and/or First Aid at Work courses and concentrate on the skills you need in the Forestry industry.
Platinum Safety’s course has been developed to comply with the Forestry Commission +F as per the First Aid at Work – Forestry Commission Policy and in consultation with Forestry Industry Safety Accord (FISA).
There will be assessment and a certificate of training, plus you will be given a workbook to keep handy as a useful reference guide.
Worth Noting
First aid at work certificates are valid for three years and a two-day qualification course must be carried out within one month of expiry. Don’t leave it any longer or you’ll have to take a full first aid at work course.
