Hello,

Can anyone tell/help me on what is the purpose of the ‘Essential First Aid’ badge.

Does it replace the Heart Start badge as a redesign?
Do you do it after Heart Start before doing the Youth First Aid badge?

I’m just an cadet who is a bit curious.

Thanks. :blush:

Heartstart does not exist any more. The course was discontinued. EFA is its replacement.

I think if you already qualified for HeartStart you can continue wearing the badge until you requalify and change it to EFA.

That clears it up, because I was just looking on Cadet Direct and I was confused.
