3 HSE legislation HSE legislation guide The Health and Safety Regulations 81, as amended 2013, detail the responsibilities and provisions that employers are responsible for regarding first aid in the workplace. It is a legal duty for employers to ensure that if a member of staff takes ill or is injured while at work, immediate care and attention is provided. Needs assessment All employers should carry out a first aid needs assessment taking into account potential hazards and risks within their workplace. The following points should be considered when conducting a first aid needs assessment: The nature of the work and workplace hazards and risks. The nature of the workforce. The organisation s history of accidents. The size of the organisation. The needs of travelling, remote and lone workers Work patterns. The distribution of the workforce. The remoteness of the site from emergency medical services. Employees working in shared or multioccupied sites. Annual leave and other absences of First Aiders and appointed persons. First aid provision for nonemployees. A freetouse online calculator is available on St Andrew s First Aid Training and Supplies Ltd s website at calculator. This calculator will guide you through your workplace first aid needs assessment and detail your requirements. Due diligence The amendment to The Health and Safety (FirstAid) Regulations 81 also removed the requirement for the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) to approve the training and qualifications of workplace first aid personnel. In effect, the HSE no longer approves training providers to deliver workplace first aid qualifications. The onus is now placed on the employer to not only carry out a first aid needs assessment but also to carry out a due diligence check to ensure that a training provider meets all quality assurance requirements. This due diligence exercise requires you to prove that the training provider can provide evidence that they can or have: The qualifications expected of Trainers and Assessors Monitoring and quality assurance systems Syllabus content Certification St Andrew s First Aid Training and Supplies Ltd is cited as a standard setter in first aid by the HSE. By choosing us as your preferred training provider, you are already ticking the due diligence box and saving yourself from having to complete another timeconsuming task whilst at the same time also moving your organisation towards setting the standard in first aid. Additional training Dependent upon the findings of your first aid needs assessment, there may be a requirement for additional training or equipment to provide an adequate level of support to employees who may have various underlying health conditions. For example, you may have an employee who has allergies and is prone to suffering an anaphylactic reaction if exposed to an allergen. Sending an employee onto an Anaphylaxis Awareness course will give them the extra indepth knowledge required to provide immediate assistance to a colleague should he/she suffer an anaphylactic reaction and also to provide advice on preventative measures to colleagues. There may also be employees who come into the at risk category for a heart attack due to age or underlying conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes or lifestyle. With ambulance response times averaging eight minutes, every second counts when it comes to resuscitating someone who has had a cardiac arrest. Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) enhance the chances of survival by up to 75% if used quickly enough. More employers are becoming aware of the benefits of having these lifesaving machines readily available within their workplace. Although easy to use, St Andrew s First Aid Training and Supplies Ltd recommends attending one of our AED training courses. 04 HSE legislation St Andrew s First Aid Training and Supplies Ltd Sales Brochure

17 Workplace and Community : Be Ready, Willing and Able Sudden Cardiac Arrest knows no boundaries. No matter where or when Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) strikes, early use of a defibrillator can save lives. In fact, it s proven to be the only effective treatment for SCA. Be Ready Understand SCA and recognise the signs Be Willing Be prepared and willing to help Be Able Be equipped with confidence and technology SCA facts In the UK approximately 30,000 people sustain cardiac arrest outside hospital and are treated by emergency medical services (EMS) each year 1. An average of only 7% of its victims in the UK survive 2 It can happen anytime, anywhere and to anyone, even young athletes Early defibrillation is the single most effective treatment for SCA Defibrillation within 3 minutes of collapse can increase the chance of survival to over 70%. 3 Sadly, on average, only 7% of people who suffer Sudden Cardiac Arrest outside the hospital survive, 2 and survival rates fall by around 10% every minute. 3 There s rarely any warning, and a victim of SCA usually collapses and stops breathing immediately. That s when the clock starts ticking! Calling 999 in the event of SCA is critical, as is performing CPR on the victim. Heart attack or SCA? SCA is very different from a heart attack, or myocardial infarction, although it can cause SCA. A heart attack occurs when one or more blood vessels to the heart are blocked, causing damage to the heart muscle. A Sudden Cardiac Arrest is caused by an abnormal heart rhythm or ventricular fibrillation, which causes the heart to stop pumping blood. The single most effective treatment for SCA is early defibrillation providing a shock to the heart within the first three to five minutes. There are many people willing to come to the aid of a victim of SCA, but many more would be prepared to help if they had the confidence to administer CPR and operate an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED). Know what to do Quick action by the first person on the scene can make a real difference to the outcome for a victim of SCA Many people around the world are trained in CPR Anyone with minimal training can use an AED easily and safely Builtin safety mechanisms make AEDs suitable for use in a community AEDs are often found in schools, health clubs, community centres, airports, stadia, exhibition centres, factories and many other locations. Having an AED close by can mean the difference between life and death for a victim of SCA. What is an AED? An AED, or Automated External Defibrillator, is a small electronic device designed to allow minimallytrained people to provide lifesaving defibrillation (electric shock to the heart) to victims of sudden cardiac arrest. During SCA, the normally organized electrical impulses that initiate cardiac contraction (heartbeats) discharge chaotically, and the heart muscle twitches spasmodically. An AED applies a brief pulse of electrical current to a heart, allowing the heart s normal electrical system to resume control. Get an AED Costing about as much as a personal computer and software, an AED is easy to use and maintain. Having AEDs readily available in public places makes sense. Time to defibrillation, the most critical factor in SCA survival, can be reduced if a defibrillator is onsite and can be brought to the victim quickly. This is one of the reasons survival rates improve in communities with active AED programs. Remember, every minute that passes before defibrillation can reduce survival rates by 10%. 3 2 physiocontrol.com

18 Workplace and Community : Be Ready, Willing and Able Workplace and Community : Be Ready, Willing and Able Time is critical Time to the first defibrillation shock is the most critical factor in determining survival rates for SCA. The European Resuscitation Council recommends defibrillation within three minutes 3 On average it takes emergency services 6 to 12 minutes to arrive The vast majority of SCA victims die (up to 93%) because defibrillation isn t available soon enough 2 Defibrillation is the single most effective treatment for SCA Studies show that early defibrillation programs save lives 3 Survival rates after cardiac arrest decrease by 10% with every minute that defibrillation is delayed. 3 The chain of survival is the worldwide guideline for response to sudden cardiac arrest. The Chain of Survival has five lifesaving links: Immediate recognition of cardiac arrest and activation of emergency response system: Call 999 or EMS immediately and get an AED, if available. Early cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR): Provide chest compressions by pushing hard and fast with minimal interruptions to help maintain blood flow to the brain and body until the next step. Rapid defibrillation: Defibrillation is the only way to restart a heart in sudden cardiac arrest. An electronic device known as a defibrillator is used to deliver a shock. Electricity flows from paddles or adhesive electrodes through the chest. Activate the defibrillator as soon as it is available. Effective advanced life support: After bystander CPR and possible defibrillation, an onscene emergency team provides advanced cardiac care, such as intravenous medications. Care continues during transport to the hospital. Integrated postcardiac arrest care: Advanced hospital care. Be Ready, Willing and Able with PhysioControl and LIFEPAK AEDs No matter where or when SCA strikes, early use of a defibrillator can help save lives. In fact, it s proven to be the only effective treatment for SCA. Trust the brand that leads the way in UK Ambulance Services.

All course content is available for 12 months after purchase to accommodate those with time constraints or provide a library of first aid theory to prevent skillsfade. Having successfully completed the course, each candidate is presented with a certificate of completion in line with St Andrew s First Aid guidelines. Who is the training for?

30 HOPE IS IN YOUR HANDS It happens in a split second. A person collapses the victim of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and the clock starts ticking in the race to restore a normal rhythm to the heart. A rescuer armed with an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) and performing CPR is the victim s best chance for survival until medical personnel arrive. A proven partner, setting the benchmark for AEDs While only 50% of those who experience SCA will initially require a shock, every victim needs CPR to increase the flow of oxygenated blood to the heart and brain. ZOLL AEDs guide rescuers with highquality Real CPR Help, then deliver a shock, if needed. No other AED supports rescuers with integrated, realtime instruction and comprehensive feedback on compression rate and depth like ZOLL AEDs. THE CASE FOR AEDS Survival increases with early intervention Research shows that the probability of survival goes up dramatically when CPR is performed and when an AED is applied before an ambulance arrives. 1 24% ZOLL ZOLL AED AED Plus Plus The ZOLL AED Plus was the first AED with Real CPR Help to help rescuers know when they are doing highquality CPR. Today, the ZOLL AED Plus continues to set the benchmark for design, dependability, durability, and performance. More than CPR. This is Real CPR Help. Only half of sudden cardiac arrest victims will initially need a shock, while 100% require high quality CPR. ZOLL offers the only AEDs that support rescuers with integrated realtime text, voice, and visual prompts and feedback on compression rate and depth to administer highquality CPR. Smart investment with a low total cost of ownership Once installed, the ZOLL AED Plus has the lowest total cost of ownership compared to other AEDs. Longerlasting batteries and pads require fewer replacement parts, adding up to considerable cost savings over time and rescue readiness in a cardiac arrest emergency. Ready for the rescue Lives are not saved by AEDs alone. People save lives using an AED, and saving lives requires confident rescuers who provide highquality CPR and use an AED with a working battery and pads that have not expired. Before Ambulance Arrives 5% 9% ZOLL AED 3 The ZOLL AED 3 builds on our reputation for providing rescuers with unmatched support plus a low total cost of ownership. The ZOLL AED 3 embodies all the same great qualities of its predecessor while offering advanced features to provide unrivaled rescuer support. Real CPR Help instills confidence by guiding rescuers to perform highquality CPR with compressions to the Guidelinesrecommended rate and depth. AED Programme Management ensures your AED is ready to go when needed. Fewer replacements with longerlasting parts means a lower total cost of ownership and an AED that is ready for the rescue when needed. Trust ZOLL AEDs as your rescue partner. Together we are ready to help save lives. Do Nothing Perform CPR Perform CPR + Apply an AED Probability of Survival (Discharged from hospital and alive 30 days later) 1 Weisfeldt ML, et al. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2010;55(16): Where is the AED? Too often, the answer is, We don t have one. Sadly, the same research that demonstrated a nearly fivefold increase in survivability (from 5% to 24%) when an AED is used, also showed that an AED is available only 2% of the time. The immediate initiation of CPR can double or quadruple survival from cardiac arrest ERC Guidelines, p. 83. Enhanced Real CPR Help The ZOLL AED 3 has proven Real CPR Help technology with enhanced features, including dynamic rescue images and a full colour display. Integrated paediatric rescue Universal pad design provides rescuers a single, confident solution to treat both adult and paediatric victims of SCA by using the same set of electrode pads, and simply activating child mode. WiFi connectivity Easily manage your suite of devices via the cloud. Our Programme Management solution helps you monitor and manage all your AEDs and will immediately notify you of a failed selftest so you can be sure you are prepared for an emergency.

34 St Andrew s First Aid St Andrew s First Aid is Scotland s only dedicated first aid charity and our mission is to provide everyone in the country with the highest standards in first aid skills, services and volunteering opportunities. We believe that noone should suffer or die because they needed first aid and didn t get it. Our network of volunteers work hard right across Scotland to provide the highest standards in first aid at events across the country. Our volunteers also provide first aid talks and demonstrations to community groups in their local area. St Andrew s First Aid has challenged itself to demonstrate CPR to 2,000 Scots over 2017/18 in order to help Scotland become a safer and more resilient country. Events By choosing to book first aid event cover with St Andrew s First Aid, you are supporting Scotland s leading first aid charity. The money received from providing event cover helps us to equip and train our volunteers. It also enables us to provide talks, demonstrations, and training in schools and communities in Scotland, especially for those who would not normally have access to first aid education. As the official first aid organisation for some of Scotland s most exciting events, we are known for consistently delivering the highest standards of first aid cover and training; our volunteers are highly praised for their professionalism and approachability.

35 Fundraising Charitable donations are absolutely vital to St Andrew s First Aid because they allow us to continue our lifesaving work, and teach more people first aid skills. In Scotland if you have a cardiac arrest outwith hospital, there is only a one in twenty chance you will survive. St Andrew s First Aid wants to turn this shocking statistic around but we can only do this with your help. We want to teach more people across Scotland the skills and knowledge to not only help themselves but help others too when they need it most. Building a nation of lifesavers Our aim is to create a nation of lifesavers by equipping the people of Scotland with the necessary skills in first aid. It costs 60 per month to put a St Andrew s first aid volunteer through our 12 month leadership programme giving them the chance to learn new skills and fulfil their potential. It costs 120 for a first aid trainer to provide lifesaving skills to a class of 30 children. In Scotland first aid is not part of the school curriculum. It costs 1,000 to purchase an automatic external defibrillator. The use of a defibrillator in the first three minutes of a cardiac arrest increases the chances of survival by over 70%. It costs 1,500 to train and equip a first aid volunteer to be a member of our rapid response cycle team. Using a cycle team at an event such as a marathon allows First Aiders to reach those injured quickly and across a larger area. It costs 2,000 to train, equip and retain a first aid volunteer in the field. Last year our volunteers provided first aid cover at over 2,000 events and gave up 66,733 hours of their own time to ensure safety at events across Scotland. It costs 15,000 to purchase a specially designed mobile first aid treatment vehicle. These vehicles are essential at large scale events. It costs 35,000 to train 90, 3rd year pupils in certified first aid through our BandAge project which has been running in deprived areas of Glasgow since Together we can save lives Any donation no matter how big or small benefits communities across Scotland and will help to create a nation of lifesavers who will be there for someone when they need it most.
