We are also members of the European Resuscitation Council (ERC), (RoSPA) and the Federation of First Aid Training Organisations (FOFATO). The MHA course is a half day (3-4 hour) course run by a RoSPA accredited trainer which covers: the functions of the human spine; manual handling injuries; identifying the hazards of “top heavy bending”; risk assessment and includes practicing the techniques of base movements and applying them to typical work activities. Every delegate on a First Aid Scotland MHA course also receives a delegate pack which includes: a detailed MHA student manual with guidelines on correct techniques and risk assessment. |
