Posted By jackw. Hi have a look at the First Aid regs and the guidance you will find it very easy to develop a policy from them Check www.firstaidcafe.co.uk you will also find good advice etc.on it. No the fact that you are a health provider and will have trained nurses around and possibly an A&E facility does not alter anything in terms of first aid cover. Might seem silly but nurses are not first aiders, also would you have staff runing to A&E for minor cuts etc?. Cheers
