Overview of First Aid Course - 7 hrs - (CASINO)
Provide First Aid describes the skills and knowledge that may be required to provide a first aid response to a casualty which could be a family member or friend. This unit is nationally recognised and applies to all workers and/or employees who may be required to provide first aid in a range of situations, including the wider community and workplace environment.
Previously known as Apply First Aid or Senior First Aid, this course will give you the skills and knowledge required to provide first aid response, life support and the management of casualty(s) in a range of situations. This can include incidents in the home, community or the workplace until professional medical personnel or other assistance arrive.
With instruction and practical training in line with legal, workplace and community considerations, Australian Resuscitation Council guidelines and other Australian national peak clinical bodies, this first aid course teaches the skills and knowledge to recognise emergencies and provide immediate and effective first aid treatment to any person suffering a sudden illness or injury.
The course covers assessing the casualty, providing safety, accessing emergency services, and using resources to provide first aid, such as providing CPR and using a defibrillator, administering an autoinjector for anaphylaxis, administering asthma medication, assisting someone choking, using appropriate immobilisation techniques for envenomation, fractures, dislocations, sprains and strains, managing casualties with non-life-threatening bleeding and shock.
You will learn basic anatomy, physiology and the differences between adults, children and infants relating to CPR, the importance of the chain of survival, written and verbal reporting of incident details, reviewing incidents to improve own skills and response times, to recognise psychological impacts, and seeking help as required.
