Question 1

What courses are available?

Accepted Answer

Laered Lar delivers first aid training, trauma training and emergency response training. Each is shaped around your organisation rather than delivered from a fixed script, so the content, emphasis and scenarios are agreed with you before the session. The full published course list is being finalised. If you have a specific requirement, it is worth asking.

Question 2

Can training be tailored to our practice?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Tailoring is central to how the training is delivered. Sessions are built around your team roles, experience levels, working environment, the equipment you hold and the emergencies you are most likely to encounter.

Question 3

How long does training take?

Accepted Answer

Session length depends on the course, the number of people attending and how much practical time you want. Course durations are confirmed at enquiry stage once requirements are agreed.

Question 4

What certification is provided?

Accepted Answer

Certification and documentation are provided where applicable to the course delivered. Exact certification details are confirmed before booking so you know precisely what your team will receive for their training records.

Question 5

How often should training be refreshed?

Accepted Answer

Refresher frequency depends on the course, your organisation's policies and any professional requirements that apply to your team. This can be discussed as part of your enquiry so your training plan stays current.

Question 6

Do you train at our premises?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Training is normally delivered on site at your workplace. That keeps staff time away from the practice to a minimum and means scenarios can be run in the rooms your team actually works in.

Question 7

How many people can attend?

Accepted Answer

Group sizes are agreed with you. Smaller groups allow more practical time per person, and larger teams can be split across separate sessions or shifts. Recommended numbers are confirmed at enquiry stage.

Question 8

Which geographical areas do you cover?

Accepted Answer

Training is delivered across North East England, including Tyne and Wear, Northumberland, County Durham and Teesside. If you are just outside the region, please include your location or postcode in your enquiry and you will be told directly whether the training can be delivered to you.

Question 9

What happens if we need to cancel or rearrange?

Accepted Answer

Practices sometimes need to move a date, and that can usually be accommodated. Booking, cancellation and rearrangement terms are confirmed in writing before training is booked.

Question 10

Do you work with GP practices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. GP practices are a core focus. Training can cover the whole team, including reception and administrative staff, with scenarios relevant to a primary care setting. See training for GP and dental practices for detail.

Question 11

Do you work with dental practices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Dental practices are a core focus, with sessions covering medical emergencies in the surgery and the practical realities of responding with a small team.

Question 12

How much does training cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on the course, group size, session length and location, so a figure is provided in response to your enquiry rather than published as a fixed price list. You will receive a clear written quotation before anything is booked.

Question 13

How do we book?

Accepted Answer

Send a training enquiry with your organisation, approximate numbers and the training you have in mind. You will then discuss requirements directly with the trainer, agree the session and confirm a date.
