Selecting a first aid training provider
All qualifications we provide are nationally recognised, accredited first aid qualifications. At First Aid Bristol we exceed the requirements of a course provider as set by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Please see the full list of HSE requirements we exceed below.

In 2013, the HSE deregulated the first aid industry so there is no longer any requirement for externally regulated certification.
HOW WE COMPLY
- All of our trainers and assessors hold current ‘First Aid at Work’ qualifications as a minimum and all hold relevant teaching qualifications.
- We have a dedicated and qualified ‘Quality Assurance Officer’ and fully documented ‘Course Evaluation’ and ‘Complaints’ procedures.
If you are unsure which first aid course is most appropriate, please do not hesitate to get in touch. - All of our courses are taught in accordance with current guidelines on adult basic life support published by the Resuscitation Council (UK).
- All of our courses have been designed by experts in the field to exceed the requirements for course content set by the HSE. See Appendix 1 & 2 in the HSE’s document on selecting a first-aid training provider.
- Our certificates are accredited accordingly and include all necessary details as outlined by the HSE.
