First Aid HLTAID003 - 1 day Workshop

This course is for students who are required to provide an advanced first aid response, life support, management of casualty(s), the incident and other first aiders, in a range of situations, including in the home, workplace or within the community, until the arrival of medical or other assistance.

Course participants will receive a First Aid manual.

Entry Requirements

This is a one-day course based on pre-reading and completion of a workbook before attendance at the course. The workbook will be available when you enrol or can be downloaded and printed at home. Download the Workbook.

This workbook contains the theory students need to know before attending face-to-face training. The face-to-face training will focus on the practical skills and assessment. Students are required to read the workbook and attempt the revision questions. The completed workbook should be handed to the course Trainer/Assessor at the commencement of class.

Important Information

• As part of the assessment in class, students will need to kneel on the floor and undertake two demonstrations of CPR (each a 4 minute duration) in order for the Trainer/Assessor to sign off competency for CPR. You will need to bring a clean towel to kneel upon for the floor work.
• There is no minimum age for this course, but in cases where a very young or very old course participant has insufficient strength in their arms and shoulders to depress a manikin by the one-third required to achieve competency in CPR, the student will be issued with a Certificate of Participation, rather than a Statement of Attainment.
• Please make sure that you provide us with a valid email address and mobile number as class information such as confirmation of enrolment, dates, times, venues, and any course changes will be communicated to you via email or sms.

Frequency of training for first aid in the workplace

First aiders should attend training on a regular basis to refresh their first aid knowledge and skills and to confirm their competence to provide first aid. Refresher training in CPR should be carried out annually and first aid qualifications should be renewed every three years.

This training is delivered by Community College Northern Inland Inc. RTO 90027. On successful completion of the training program, the nationally recognised Statement of Attainment comprising HLTAID001 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation, HLTAID002 Provide basic emergency life support and HLTAID003 Provide first aid will be issued to students assessed as competent by Community College Northern Inland.
