First Response Training

First Response is another essential requirement. It is a 6 hour programme and can be delivered by one of the following routes:

1. Blended model (developed by Hampshire Scouts). Consists of:
   2.5hr eLearning followed by
   2.5-3hr online facilitated session, followed by
   short (15-20min) face to face validation session
   
   
2. Face to face 6 hour training course - once COVID restrictions allow
   
   
3. 3 x 2hr online facilitated sessions followed by a short (15-20min) face to face validation session.

In Wharfedale District we are recommending the Blended model. (Route A)

1) Register with Hampshire Scouts using this link : First Response with e-learning

2) Follow the link provided when you register to complete the e-Learning theory module. This tracks progress and checks knowledge as it proceeds. It takes approximately 2.5hrs to complete. District will be informed when you have completed the module.

3) The final element (which is only possible now that we have reached readiness level Yellow) is a live session at Reva. It will take about 2 hours and consist of a quick review and validation of the e-learning plus hands-on sessions including choking, bandaging, recovery position, approaching a casualty, CPR and Defibrillator training.

There are 6 places on each session. To see the current dates and availability please click here.

To book on to one of these sessions please complete and submit the form below.

Unfortunately, Alan has had to suspend his First Aid Sessions at Reva. (If you have a confirmed booking on 27 April that will go ahead.) Alternative arrangements will be announced when they are available. If you need your First Response Training renewed, keep an eye on the County Training Pages in the meantime for courses to become available. There are regular courses at Bradley Wood.
