Emergency Coordinator Training

We do not live in a perfect world and unfortunately things do go wrong. We hope it is not often and the incident is small, but the better prepared we are for these events, the better we can deal with them.


During an incident it is impossible to expect a first aider to manage a whole incident while they are treating a casualty; their cognitive bandwidth does not allow them to do all tasks effectively.


The emergency services recognise this and deploy operational commanders, tactical commanders and cardiac arrest leads to difficult incidents to ensure the incident is effectively managed and coordinated. 


In workplaces and at events where incidents can occur, it is crucial individuals and teams are trained to be able to coordinate such events.

RB First Aid provide Emergency Coordinator Courses that are tailored to you.
