First aid provisions

The Charity Trustees must undertake a first-aid needs assessment and consider their congregation's first-aid measures and provisions to protect employees and anyone else using the building(s) and ground(s). The first aid needs assessment should include the provision of an accident book and accident reporting procedure for RIDDOR reportable accidents and near miss incidents. See the first aid section for more information.

Automated External Defibrillators (AED)

If you have an AED fitted at your church, scheduled monthly inspections are recommended where there is no third-party monitoring or maintenance agreement. This will ensure that the equipment is operational and any used consumables have been replenished.
