At DTMK Training Services in Bletchley we believe that learning first aid is one of the most valuable steps a person or organisation can take. We teach a wide range of first aid courses for workplaces, schools, families and community groups across Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire and the surrounding areas. Our aim is simple. We want people to feel confident when dealing with emergencies and to help our community become safer every day.
This blog explains the variety of first aid courses we offer and why each one matters. It is designed to help you understand what is available while also improving the visibility of our training centre when people search for first aid training in Bletchley or Milton Keynes.
Why first aid training matters
A medical emergency can happen at work, at home, in a shop, at school or even while walking through town. When something unexpected occurs it is the people nearby who make the biggest difference. A trained first aider can recognise a serious problem, start CPR, control bleeding, use an AED or support someone who is choking while the ambulance is on the way.
Taking a first aid course gives you more than skills. It gives you calmness, confidence and the ability to protect the people around you when the unexpected happens. In a workplace setting first aid training does not remove hazards or stop incidents from occurring. That is the role of effective risk assessment and management. What first aid training does is improve the way people respond when something goes wrong, which can limit the severity of injury, provide comfort and reassurance, and support a quicker and smoother handover to the emergency services.
Our range of first aid courses
DTMK Training Services delivers a full selection of regulated first aid courses. Many are accredited through Qualsafe Awards which means they meet national standards and are widely recognised by employers, schools and childcare settings.
Below is an overview of some of the most popular and important courses we deliver.
Emergency First Aid at Work
This one day first aid course is ideal for lower risk workplaces or anyone who wants essential first aid knowledge. It covers CPR, the use of an AED, how to help someone who is unresponsive, severe bleeding, burns, illness and more. It is one of our most popular first aid classes in Milton Keynes.
First Aid at Work
This three day first aid course offers a much deeper level of knowledge and practical skill. It is suitable for offices, warehouses, retail and any workplace that needs fully trained first aiders. It covers injuries, medical conditions, accident management and scenarios that require a confident and well practised response.
First Aid at Work Annual Refresher
This short course helps qualified first aiders maintain confidence and accuracy in their skills. Many organisations choose to refresh their team every year to support good practice.
Paediatric First Aid
Our two day paediatric first aid course is essential for nurseries, pre schools, childminders, early years settings, schools and anyone who works with children. It focuses on the care of infants and young people including CPR, choking, anaphylaxis, fractures, illness and injuries.
Emergency Paediatric First Aid
This one day course covers the essential emergency skills needed for the care of infants and children. It is popular with schools, after school clubs and support staff.
Blended Paediatric First Aid
Learners complete the theory online before attending a practical training day at our Bletchley venue. This is a flexible way to complete a recognised paediatric first aid course.
Basic Life Support and AED
We offer several basic life support options for adults, children and infants. These sessions focus on CPR, defibrillation, breathing emergencies and practical scenario practice. We use realistic manikins including adult, child and infant models to support accurate skills.
Management of Anaphylaxis
These sessions help people recognise the signs of a severe allergic reaction and understand how to use an auto injector. They are important for education settings, food environments and community groups.
citizenAID
Our citizenAID courses teach people how to help in the event of a major incident. They focus on staying safe, giving vital information, treating severe bleeding and supporting casualties until the emergency services arrive.

This course supports those who need to use emergency oxygen as part of their role. It is suitable for certain workplace environments and community responders.

This first aid course is aimed at people involved in outdoor activity, sport, youth work and community events. It includes the treatment of common injuries, environmental conditions and emergency care away from the usual workplace setting.
