- What is an Appointed person?
An Appointed Person is the person who is assigned to take charge of First Aid. This means taking control when someone is ill or injured, including calling 999. They are responsible for First Aid equipment and keeping boxes stocked up. An Appointed Person should be available at all times, so it may be necessary to appoint more than one to cover the workplace fully.

A First Aider is a person who has successfully attended a 4 Day First Aid At Work training course and who holds a current First Aid at Work certificate. This training can be obtained from Achievable Training as we are an HSE Approved organisation. (Certificate No. 1472/94). More than one First Aider may be needed but a First Aider can undertake the duties of an Appointed Person.
