Case Study: British Red Cross helps Cog Design improve workplace first aid readiness with First Aid training

British Red Cross trains Ed in a half-day First Aid course with Cog Design

The British Red Cross provided a First Aid training course to Cog Design, whose Studio Manager needed to become the company's designated first aider. The challenge was to equip this employee with the essential skills and knowledge to handle potential workplace accidents and medical emergencies effectively.

Cog Design's employee attended the half-day course, which covered critical procedures including the DR ABC assessment (Danger, Response, Airways, Breathing, Circulation), the recovery position, and CPR. The solution implemented by the British Red Cross combined practical role-playing with theoretical lessons, culminating in a review of workplace health and safety requirements. As a result, the Cog Design employee gained the confidence and necessary skills to act in an emergency, and the company ensured its first aid kit was properly stocked and that it understood the correct protocol for maintaining an incident log.
