Annual First Aid Refresher Course for First Aiders and Emergency First Aiders: Half-day course

Although it is not mandatory, the HSE strongly recommend that HSE qualified First Aiders and Emergency First Aiders undertake an first aid annual refresher course in order to keep their skills up-to-date and refreshed.
