Level 5 Occupational First Aid Training – 3 day

Employers are required to have a number of certified Occupational First Aiders in the workplace to administer first aid as required by the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and the (General Application) Regulations 2007.

This course is delivered by professional firefighters and paramedics with many years of experience in front line emergency services. We set a high standard and the instructors are passionate about the training they deliver which guarantees student interaction and participation resulting in an enhanced learning outcome in this very popular course

Our Occupational First Aid (OFA) Programmes are delivered by FETAC Level 6 qualified Instructors who are recognised and approved by the Occupational First Assessment Agency (OFAAA) and the Health and Safety Authority (HSA) to deliver Occupational First Aid Training Nationwide.

This programme requires a high level of student participation and interaction where the theory is enhanced by practical demonstration of skills and practical application by the students.

Course Aim
