Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) — General Overview

At DAC Education, our Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) courses are designed to give your staff the essential skills and confidence to respond to first aid emergencies in the workplace.

Basic wound management — controlling bleeding and dealing with injuries
Common medical emergencies — including shock, burns, and more

We also offer EFAW courses with added modules for specific industries:
Forestry  — covers catastrophic bleeding, hypothermia, and Lyme disease.
Farming — includes managing serious injuries and illnesses unique to agriculture.
High-Risk — adds tourniquets and haemostatic dressings for catastrophic bleeding.
Lone Worker — focused on dealing with major injuries when working alone.
Extended (18 Hours) — for workplaces needing fully qualified first aiders with broader content.
