Who this course is for & why it matters

This training is designed for healthcare professionals, early years practitioners, and individuals working in settings where severe allergic reactions are a documented risk. The Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 require employers to manage specific health risks present in their environment, including the administration of life-saving medication. You will gain the clinical confidence to identify anaphylaxis and provide prompt, corrective intervention, which is a critical skill set in modern safety management.

Severe allergic reactions require immediate, decisive action, and our Anaphylaxis & Epipen Training is designed to provide you with the essential skills to manage these life-threatening emergencies. Delivered at our dedicated centre in Boroughbridge or at your own premises across Yorkshire, this course leads to the Livius Training Internal Certificate. This qualification is meticulously mapped against current Resuscitation Council UK guidelines, ensuring that your team receives training that is both clinically accurate and easy to apply in high-pressure situations.

The curriculum for this half-day session focuses on the rapid recognition of anaphylactic shock and the practical administration of Adrenaline Auto-Injectors (AAIs). Under the guidance of our expert instructors, you will gain hands-on experience with various trainer devices, including EpiPen, Jext, and Emerade. We cover the physiological changes that occur during a systemic reaction, common triggers, and the critical importance of correct casualty positioning and follow-up care. By aligning with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) recommendations for workplace first aid, we ensure your organisation remains compliant while prioritising the safety of staff, students, or customers.

In a region as diverse as North Yorkshire—from bustling hospitality venues to rural schools—the ability to provide immediate care is vital. Under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, employers have a duty of care to ensure staff are adequately trained to handle foreseeable risks, including severe allergies. This training bridges the critical gap between the onset of symptoms and the arrival of emergency services, empowering your workforce with the confidence to save a life.

Completing this course ensures your organisation meets these vital legal safety standards, mitigating clinical risk and providing the necessary preparedness to save lives in a medical crisis at your premises or in our Boroughbridge training centre.

Working in the great British outdoors requires more than just standard first aid knowledge; it demands specialist skills to manage life-threatening incidents in remote environments. At Livius Training, we provide the FAA Level 3 Award in Forestry First Aid (RQF), a qualification developed in conjunction with NUCO Training and First Aid Awards. Delivered at our dedicated training centre in Boroughbridge, North Yorkshire, this intensive one-day course is specifically designed to meet the requirements of the Forestry Commission First Aid at Work Policy.

The syllabus builds upon the foundations of emergency first aid, addressing the specific, high-risk hazards faced by those working in forestry, arboriculture, and remote land-based roles. Because help is often further away in the Yorkshire woodlands, this qualification focuses heavily on time-critical interventions. You will learn the professional application of tourniquets and haemostatic dressings to manage catastrophic haemorrhage—a vital skill when working with heavy machinery or chainsaws. The training also covers the management of crush injuries, hypothermia, and the identification of Lyme disease, ensuring you are prepared for the unique challenges of the outdoor environment.

Holding this certification ensures your compliance with the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981 within a forestry context.
