What Is the Level 3 FREC Refresher Course?
The FREC Level 3 Refresher Course is a two-day, intensive training programme, designed for professionals who already hold a Level 3 FREC certificate. Accredited by Qualsafe Awards, it helps you renew your qualification, ensuring you’re still prepared for any emergency situation.
This course combines practical training with updated theoretical knowledge, providing you with the latest techniques and protocols in emergency care. You’ll refresh your critical skills, learn new developments in trauma management, and ensure you're ready to act swiftly in the field.
