Celox products

Celox is for arresting life threatening bleeding.  High Peak First Aid is an official stockist for Celox products:  we have Celox 15g and 35g plus Celox gauze and the Celox applicator in stock.  A summary of Celox is added to the High Peak Wilderness First Aid 16hr course to give participants the knowledge to decide if they need to attend further training.  Free training is available and held several times a month if you have attended a course with us.  The Celox training is also part of some of the courses provided at High Peak First Aid Training. The Celox training is taught in addition to the use of tourniquets.

The Health and Safety Executive has issued a statement on the use of haemostats.  Further details are found in the HSE June 2016 First Aid e Bulletin. The HSE makes reference to types of workplace that may benefit from having employees trained in the use of tourniquets. These sectors include and are not limited to forestry, agriculture and construction.

 

 

 

Free post on first aid supplies over £30 or collect for free

High Peak First Aid Supplies has free post on all orders over £30 or you can choose the option to purchase and collect for free between the hours of 9-4.30pm Monday to Friday excluding bank holidays. Our new products are in stock so if you work in the Hope Valley or visit the Peak District you can collect first aid supplies for the workplace or first aid kits for the outdoors.

The first new products to go into the High Peak First Aid Supplies shop will be our extensive range of burn dressings.  Burn dressings are a must have if you are taking part in any activity in the outdoors where stoves or fire is present.  Our current product range has burn dressings for minor burns right up to a dressing for the face and hands.  These burn dressings can be use as well as immersion in water which is still the standard treatment for burns, however, the application of a burn dressing reduces scarring and reduces pain.

High Peak First Aid Supplies

High Peak First Aid Supplies is based at the same address as High Peak First Aid Training.  In addition to our classroom’s we have a large office space where all our first aid supplies are packed and posted out.  We are currently reviewing our postage and are looking to make some items postage free as well as offering the option to pick up goods.  In addition to this, our PDF price list is almost finished and new items are almost ready for showing in the shop area.

We have a varied selection of stock that is suitable for equipping a first aid room from Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s) to eye pads.  There is also a good selection of first aid kits for the outdoors, so if you are involved in any outdoor activities then we will have a suitable first aid kit for you.  If you are attending any assessments for Single Pitch Award (SPA), Mountain Leader Summer or Winter then we can provide you with robust first aid kits that will withstand the outdoor environment. We have a selection of first aid kits for Duke of Edinburgh’s Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards that contain burn dressings which is a requirement under the D of E guidelines. If you work in a high risk environment we now stock the full range of Celox and always have tourniquets in stock as well as trauma dressings.

By attending a first aid course at High Peak First Aid participants will have the opportunity to use some of the products we have for sale and to receive discounted prices. In addition to this we have a first aid kit module on each course so depending on which High Peak Wilderness First Aid Module is chosen a participant will gain a thorough understanding on what to put in a first aid kit.  Attendance on First Aid at Work courses or outdoor courses allows access to free CPD events such as Celox and Tourniquet training.

 

High Peak First Aid Supplies

High Peak First Aid Supplies has almost finished our new price list for a comprehensive range of first aid supplies.  In addition to this our webshop is filling up with products that we will shortly release for you to purchase.  Our complete range will have first aid kits for the workplace and for those who need first aid kits for the outdoor environment.  We will have dedicated sections for outdoor first aid, forestry first aid and remote area first aid to name a few. These sections will have bespoke kits that are more cost effective to buy as opposed to the individual items.  There will also be a complete range of Celox and tourniquets for the arrest of major haemorrhage.

If you attend a course at High Peak First Aid we also offer you free Celox and Tourniquet training, additional Emergency First Aid at Work (6hrs) certification for free and a discount on any first aid supplies bought on the day.  On select courses such as The High Peak Wilderness First Aid Modules 1-5 we have special offers on bundles of first aid supplies for those working in remote or hostile environments.

Over the next few weeks we will be posting new products in the latest new section.
