Primary & Secondary Care Course with DIVE Northampton
Course from... £90
DIVE Northampton provides a comprehensive list of First Aid options. Whether to meet the needs of divers completing their Rescue program or for use in the Workplace, dedicated to training the lay rescuer, these courses encompass adult, child and infant CPR skills, provide AED and First Aid training, and feature an outstanding First Aid at Work component. 
Many divers take thes First Aid courses to meet program prerequisites, such as Rescue Diver, or as preparation for becoming a Divemaster. However, most have also found the program to be important in every day life. They have taken a significant step in emergency preparedness, and feel confident that they can provide care should an emergency situation arise.

The program meets requirements for CPR and First Aid in the workplace (OSHA Guideline 29 CFR 1910.151), and incorporates the latest procedures for emergency patient care.

This is also a pre-requisite for the Rescue Course

The certification is valid for 2 years and then a Refresher Course must be completed to renew your certification.
