Offshore Medic Course Information



About the course

The offshore installations and pipeline works (first aid) regulations 1989 placed a duty on those in control of offshore installations, pipeline works, or any
associated activities to make provision for persons to administer first aid and emergency treatment to those who become ill or injured at work. This is a UK Health and Safety Executive approved course which encompasses all aspects of the legal requirements, alongside the latest clinical thinking.
