This is a 1 day regulated qualification which includes a multichoice assessment at the end of the day. The hours are: 9:30-17:30. You must be able to stay for the whole day & complete the assessment or you will not be able to pass the requirements for gaining this qualification. This is a very active day with lots of moving around and observational assessments. Please ensure you only sign up to this course if you are able to move around sufficiently and get down to floor level.

(Adaptations can be made with the full understanding that you will need to get down to floor level if a real-life incident occurs, in which you are required to administer CPR).
