Emergency response officer - Refresher

Emergency response officer - Refresher

Emergency response officers (EROs) are regular employees. They take action when something happens on the company’s premises: fire breaks out, someone is hurt, or an evacuation is necessary. They know what to do in the event of a fire or if someone faints. In the event of an evacuation, the EROs ensure that everyone leaves the building safely.

EROs generally reach the scene of an incident before the fire brigade, ambulance or police and can make a significant difference in the early stages of an incident. EROs are trained to function as the advance guard during incidents, until the emergency services arrive. They take measures to minimize injury and damage.

The following topics will be covered during this course:

1. Emergency first aid
   Emergency first aid covers cardiopulmonary resuscitation using the Automated External Defibrillator (AED). This component also discusses what to do in the event of choking, shock, angina pectoris, heart attack, stroke, epilepsy, diabetes and brain damage.
2. Non-emergency first aid
   Non-emergency first aid involves the assessment and treatment of non-life-threatening conditions such as wounds, eye injuries, bruises/bruising, sprains, fractures or burns.
3. Evacuation
   In the event of an evacuation, there should always be a general evacuation procedure describing what the emergency response officer needs to do in the event of an evacuation. Evacuation facilities and equipment are also covered, as well as collaboration with external emergency services.
4. Firefighting
   The firefighting component teaches what you need to take into account when you receive notification of a fire on your company’s premises. When are you justified in attempting to extinguish a fire? In which cases should you immediately commence evacuation? You’ll learn which fires you can extinguish, and how to do so. Naturally, the course also covers the risks of extinguishing a fire. After all, your own safety always comes first.
