Radius Group
Trauma First Aid
Construction-Specific Trauma First Aid Response Training
Standard first aid doesn’t cover the high-risk realities of construction and lifting work. That’s why Radius Group, in partnership with The Soteria Group, delivers specialist trauma training designed for real-world site emergencies.
This training has been delivered operationally on live construction sites since 2024, supporting both Radius teams and our clients across high-risk environments.
Through this collaboration, Radius brings specialist training to our clients, while The Soteria Group provides the expert-led instruction. TSG’s expert instructors, including senior fire commanders, the former Chief Army Paramedic, and global disaster response leaders, bring frontline experience that sets this training apart.
Industry-Specific Training
Standard first aid courses lack the specialised training needed for high-risk construction and lifting sector emergencies.
Legal Compliance & Competency
UK regulations mandate adequate first-aid training, and in high-risk industries, basic training alone is not enough.
Real-World Preparedness
Our enhanced medical training equips workers with the skills to handle site-specific emergencies effectively.
The Legal Necessity for Competency
Construction sites demand fast, skilled action in emergencies. UK regulations, including the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981, require adequate and appropriate first aid. In high-risk construction environments, that means going beyond generic first aid provision.
Radius and The Soteria Group have chosen to go further, delivering trauma-focused medical training that raises standards across the industry and gives people on site a better chance of survival if something goes wrong, before professional responders arrive.
What Sets Us Apart?
This training has been designed specifically for the realities of construction and lifting work; not generic workplace scenarios. Through a unique partnership with The Soteria Group, Radius Group delivers immersive, construction-specific trauma response training that goes far beyond basic first aid. Our training goes beyond standard first aid certifications and covers severe construction-specific medical emergencies, including:
Specialised Training for Construction Trauma – Not Just First Aid
- Falls from height – Immediate response techniques for injuries at elevation.
- Crush injuries & catastrophic hemorrhage – Training in rapid tourniquet use & trauma response.
- Blunt force & penetrating trauma – How to manage impact injuries caused by falling objects, heavy machinery, or tools.
- Chemical incidents & burns – Emergency management of hazardous material exposure.
- Confined space & restricted-access rescues – Medical response techniques for casualties trapped in difficult locations.
Practical, Hands-On Learning – Not Just a Classroom Course
- This is not a basic first aid class—we put trainees through high-intensity, real-world scenarios using advanced simulation techniques.
- Casualty relocation and collaboration with emergency services are key parts of the training.
Customised First Aid Kits for Construction Sites – A Radius Exclusive
- We are developing specialised first aid kits tailored for the lifting and construction industries.
- Unlike standard workplace kits, ours include critical trauma care supplies often missing from job sites.
- Radius clients will have exclusive access to these upgraded kits—backed by TSG’s medical expertise.
