Professional Resuscitation & BLS Training for Primary Care
Meeting CQC and Resuscitation Council UK Standards for GPs and Dental Practices

Our specialised training programmes are designed for GPs, dentists, and primary care teams to ensure full compliance with CQC standards, GMC and GDC guidance, and the latest Resuscitation Council UK recommendations.
Regular, evidence-based training, realistic scenario-based simulation, and effective teamworking ensure clinicians can recognise deterioration early and respond promptly and safely to medical emergencies. Investing in high-quality resuscitation training supports compliance, strengthens clinical confidence, and ensures practices are fully prepared to deliver safe, effective care when it matters most.

FAQs
Does your training meet CQC requirements for GPs and Dentists?
Yes.
Our Resuscitation and Basic Life Support (BLS) training is specifically designed to meet the Care Quality Commission (CQC) standards for primary care providers. We align all our course content with the latest Resuscitation Council UK (RCUK) guidelines to ensure your practice remains fully compliant during inspections.
How often do primary care staff need to update their resuscitation training?
The General Dental Council (GDC) and Care Quality Commission (CQC) state that dental professionals are expected to make every effort to complete accredited Basic Life Support (BLS) or Immediate Life Support (ILS) training every year. The Resuscitation Council Uk (RCUK) and General Medical Council (GMC) recommend that clinical staff undertake a BLS update annually. This ensures that life-saving skills remain sharp and that your team is aware of any changes to emergency protocols.
Q: Can the training be delivered on-site at our practice?
Absolutely. We specialised in providing on-site training across England and Wales. Training in your own clinical environment is highly effective as it allows your team to familiarise themselves with their own emergency equipment and practice realistic scenarios in the actual spaces where an emergency might occur.
Q: Is this course CPD accredited?
Yes. First Response Healthcare Training is a CPD Member, and our resuscitation programmes are fully accredited. Upon completion, every participant receives a formal certificate detailing the training hours, which can be used as evidence for professional portfolios and annual appraisals.
Q: Does the training cover paediatric resuscitation for dental teams?
Yes. Our dental resuscitation training is comprehensive and includes both adult and paediatric Basic Life Support (BLS) protocols. This ensures that dental practices meet the GDC requirements for being prepared to manage medical emergencies for patients of all ages.
