First Aid

Highfield International has been offering first-aid qualifications in Dubai and the wider Middle East for over 10 years. Since 2010 we have worked with Dubai Corporation for Ambulance Service (DCAS) to provide high quality, internationally recognised first-aid qualifications. All organizations should ensure that they have a sufficient number of employees who have undertaken the relevant first-aid training and attained a first-aid qualification.
