Equestrian First Aid at Work Level 3 (3-days)
This course is tailored for those working with horses who also require a workplace first aid qualification. It provides full workplace first aid capability while addressing the realities of equestrian settings, including safe casualty management when horses are present and the types of injuries more likely in riding environments.
Learners develop practical competence through coached sessions and realistic scenarios. The programme covers lifesaving skills, injury and illness management, and equestrian-relevant considerations such as helmet removal and scene safety. It is designed for those who need confidence and competence both for workplace requirements and for the specific challenges that can arise around stables, arenas, and events.
