Nationwide First Aid Training Courses from Davis Access

At Davis Access, we believe that first aid training is one of the most valuable investments any organisation can make. The ability to respond quickly and effectively during a medical emergency can help save lives, reduce the severity of injuries and provide reassurance until professional medical assistance arrives. Whether you are responsible for workplace safety, managing a construction site, running an office, operating a warehouse or overseeing facilities management, ensuring your employees receive appropriate first aid training is both a legal responsibility and an important part of creating a safe working environment.

With over 30 years of industry experience, Davis Access has become one of the UK’s trusted providers of accredited workplace first aid training. From our dedicated training centre in Bristol and through onsite training delivered across England, Scotland and Wales, we help businesses of every size achieve compliance with workplace first aid requirements while giving delegates the confidence to act during emergency situations.

Our experienced instructors deliver practical, engaging and professionally presented first aid courses that combine theory with realistic scenarios, ensuring delegates leave with the knowledge and confidence to respond effectively should an incident occur.

Every workplace presents different risks, which is why selecting the right first aid training course is essential. At Davis Access, we work closely with employers to identify the most appropriate level of training based on their industry, workplace environment and legal responsibilities. Whether your organisation requires Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) for low-risk environments or the more comprehensive First Aid at Work (FAW) qualification for higher-risk workplaces, our experienced trainers will ensure your team receives practical, up-to-date instruction that reflects current best practice.

Our first aid training courses place a strong emphasis on hands-on learning, allowing delegates to develop the confidence and practical skills needed to respond calmly during real-life emergencies. Throughout each course, participants take part in realistic scenarios covering CPR, Automated External Defibrillator (AED) use, choking, severe bleeding, burns, fractures, shock, unconscious casualties and other common workplace incidents. This practical approach helps reinforce learning and ensures delegates are fully prepared should an emergency arise in the workplace.

At Davis Access, we understand that businesses require flexible training solutions that minimise disruption to day-to-day operations. That’s why we offer scheduled courses at our modern Bristol training centre as well as onsite first aid training delivered directly at customer premises throughout the UK. By bringing our experienced instructors to your workplace, we can provide cost-effective group training that is tailored to your business while helping employers maintain compliance, improve workplace safety and give employees the confidence to respond effectively when every second counts.

Supporting Health and Safety Compliance

Providing appropriate first aid training is an essential part of workplace health and safety management. Employers have a legal duty to make suitable first aid arrangements based upon their workplace first aid needs assessment. Ensuring designated first aiders receive recognised training helps businesses comply with current legislation while improving emergency preparedness across the organisation.

Regular refresher training also plays an important role in maintaining confidence and ensuring first aid skills remain current. Our refresher courses help qualified first aiders update their knowledge, reinforce practical techniques and remain prepared to respond effectively during emergencies.

Employers are responsible for ensuring appropriate first aid arrangements are in place in accordance with UK legislation. For further guidance, the HSE First Aid at Work Guidance provides detailed advice on first aid provision, risk assessments and selecting suitable workplace first aid training. Businesses can also refer to the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981, the Resuscitation Council UK for CPR and AED best practice, and the NHS First Aid Advice for general emergency first aid information.
