Life is unpredictable and emergencies can happen. It is essential therefore to identify areas of risk and measures to counter them. Sometimes, minor injuries can lead to major medical issues because proper care was not provided immediately. Therefore, first aid is a vital skill to learn when caring for others. Training can be a practical way of reducing risk with our care home first aid courses.
First aid is essential in general environments but takes an entirely new meaning when caring for some one. Care givers are challenged with managing the medical issues of their patients whiling take care of them. A lot of daily difficult activities occur such as moving or lifting patients, feeding patients, bathing patients, and administrating medicines. Accidents can happen that can affect the patient, caregiver or both. Therefore, along with direct access to correct first aid equipment, possessing a workforce with knowledge of at least basic first aid skills is one of the most essential requirements to ensure the quality and safety of all within the healthcare or the home environment.

There are three main course delivery modes at Southern Star Institute: Face-To-Face (F2F), Hybrid and Virtual. A participant can choose the most convenient mode for his training. However, the course structure and fees would vary for each mode. The educational content, however, would be the same but customizations would be made to suit the delivery needs.
Face-to-Face (F2F) Course Delivery
A Face-to-Face (F2F) course is delivered in a classroom setting. This means that scheduled normative hours take place in the physical classroom. F2F classroom interaction takes the form of in-person, real-time interaction between the trainer/facilitator and the participants. A F2F course would be taught for the duration specified for the respective course over a number of days or day as required. The sessions would be divided in the best possible way to effectively structure the course and convey key information to the participants.
Hybrid Course Delivery
A hybrid (or blended) course combines in-class instruction and activities with flexible, guided online learning in a virtual environment. Guided online activities in hybrid courses engage participants with independent, active learning that is supported, performed or submitted via our course learning management process. A hybrid course allows for many possible combinations of in-class and online instruction, interaction and digital learning activities, as well as a wide variety of deliverables.
Virtual Course Delivery
A fully online course is delivered virtually. This means that scheduled normative hours take place outside of a physical classroom. Fully online courses provide participants with flexibility to personalize their schedules as the course teaching and learning activities occur online through the use of our learning management process. Participants complete training, course requirements and collaborate on topics using a wide range of educational technologies and digital learning activities.
