Program Description
The Online Basic Life Support Training in Health and Social Care prepares care workers, residential staff, and support personnel with the vital skills necessary to respond effectively during medical emergencies. Designed both as an introductory qualification and an annual refresher course, this training aligns directly with the Skills for Care Core and Mandatory Training Framework to ensure safety compliance across healthcare environments.
The curriculum concentrates on foundational life support interventions, incident response protocols, and the identification of workplace accidents and sudden illnesses. Participants learn systematic approaches to assessing critical situations, initiating immediate response measures, and recognizing scenarios that require advanced first aid intervention or emergency medical escalation.
Delivered fully online via the Enable learning platform, the course features self-paced modules equipped with pre-module knowledge checks that allow experienced learners to test out of familiar sections. Upon successful completion of the training, participants immediately earn a CPD-certified digital credential verifying their regulatory competence in emergency response.
