What is the difference between BHV and EHBO?
A FAFS officer provides first aid in the event of incidents in or around the workplace. A first aid provider offers first aid in incidents on the street, at home, etc. The biggest difference between a FAFS officer and a first aider is therefore the environment in which you find yourself. In addition, a FAFS officer sometimes has to follow additional training to have the same powers as a first aider.
