FIRST AID TRAINING COURSE IN ENGLISH | WELLBEING

Wellbeing – a proud member of the British Safety Council – is a pioneer in providing intensive English First Aid training courses. By combining online theoretical modules with hands-on, doctor-led practical sessions, our internationally standardized courses empower businesses to equip their staff with life-saving skills without any language barriers.

1. The Importance of First Aid Training in the Workplace

Occupational accidents and medical emergencies can strike unexpectedly: machinery trauma, chemical burns, sudden cardiac arrest, drowning, or strokes. According to the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MOLISA), Vietnam records thousands of workplace accidents annually. Many of these victims could be saved if bystanders performed proper first aid within the "Golden Window" (the first 3–5 minutes).

First aid training is not only about saving lives; it is a legal mandate. Circular 19/2016/TT-BYT clearly stipulates that enterprises must organize first aid training for their employees and on-site emergency response teams. For multinational companies, English training ensures that both foreign and Vietnamese staff comprehend the protocols, coordinate seamlessly, and execute procedures flawlessly. Wellbeing designs its English first aid programs in accordance with British Safety Council and American Heart Association (AHA) standards, ensuring participants master the skills needed to tackle any crisis.

2. Why Choose an English First Aid Course?

In an era of global integration, an English-instructed course offers distinct competitive advantages:

• Accurate & Swift Communication: Utilizing standard international medical terminology prevents fatal misunderstandings and drastically reduces response times during emergencies.

• Global Standard Compliance: Multinational organizations require English-certified first aid training to ensure skills are easily transferable across borders.

• Elevating Team Capacity: Vietnamese employees gain the confidence to handle emergencies alongside foreign colleagues or clients, raising their professional value.

3. Detailed Curriculum of the English First Aid Course

Developed by leading emergency physicians, the curriculum blends theory with practical mannequin simulations:

• Part 1: Foundations & Emergency Recognition: Assessing the victim's condition (ABC: Airway – Breathing – Circulation), and identifying critical signs like respiratory arrest, cardiac arrest, stroke, severe hemorrhage, chemical burns, and spinal injuries.

• Part 2: High-Quality CPR: Practicing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (30:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio) for adults, children, and infants. Mastering the correct depth (5–6 cm), rate (100–120 bpm), and the use of oxygen Bag-Valve Masks (BVM).

• Part 3: Automated External Defibrillator (AED): The core of modern first aid. Hands-on AED practice including pad placement, rhythm analysis, safe shock delivery, and post-shock CPR. We train on high-end AEDs like the NT-381C and Nihon Kohden AED-3100 (highly recommended for resorts/hotels).

• Part 4: Specific Scenario Management:

  • Wound care, bleeding control, and bandaging.

  • Thermal and chemical burn management.

  • Fractures and spinal trauma care.

  • Stroke and poisoning response.

  • Drowning and electrocution emergencies.

• Part 5: Scenario-Based Training: Immersive drills to hone teamwork and rapid reflexes in high-pressure environments. (Upon completion, participants receive a widely recognized MOLISA and MOH-compliant First Aid Certificate).
