Basic First Aid Training

Basic First Aid Training

When someone gets hurt on a job site, the minutes before EMS arrives can shape the outcome. This 15-minute course teaches HVAC technicians, contractors, and employees at every level how to assess an injury, make clear decisions under pressure, and provide appropriate care until professional help takes over.

Why every employee needs basic first aid training

On any given job site or service call, the person closest to an injured coworker may be a front desk staffer, an install tech, or a first-day hire. This course gives anyone in that position a clear process to ensure the injured person gets the appropriate care from the moment something goes wrong.
