Emergency First Aid for Farmers & Rural Communities
This practical 3-hour course is designed to provide the skills, knowledge and confidence needed to manage an injured or unwell person before the arrival of emergency services.
Delivered by experienced pre-hospital care professionals, the course covers essential casualty and scene management skills through expert instruction, hands-on practice and realistic simulated scenarios.
Suitable for farmers, agricultural workers, rural businesses, landowners, and anyone living or working in a rural setting, the course equips participants with practical skills that could make a real difference in an emergency.
Midlands Air Ambulance Charity and FarmersAid share a commitment to supporting the health, wellbeing and resilience of farming families and rural communities. We recognise the unique challenges faced by those living and working in rural environments, where emergency help may be further away and immediate action can be critical.
