What Do You Learn During First Aid Training?

Face-to-face first aid training teaches practical skills for providing basic medical care during an emergency situation, such as anaphylactic emergencies and physical injuries. Students learn emergency medical procedures based on guidance from the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC).

Topics covered include:

• Providing basic first aid during an emergency response
• Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
• Anaphylaxis management training
• Using automated external defibrillators (AEDs)
• Seeking assistance from emergency services
• Reporting details of the incident in line with workplace procedures
• Contributing to a review of the first aid response

Each training provider has its own training methods. However, the course content covers the same topics. Along with learning how to save lives, participants explore WHS regulations and Australian standards for providing first aid in the workplace.

Who Needs to Obtain a First Aid or CPR Certificate?

Educators, childcare workers, and medical professionals often need to obtain a first aid certificate. First aid training is also a requirement under the WHS Act. Employers have a duty to provide first aid, which includes providing access to first aid equipment and trained first aiders. WorkSafe Queensland details the legal responsibilities for first aid training in the code of practice for first aid in the workplace.

The code of practice requires a specific ratio of trained first aiders to workers:

• 1:50 trained first aiders in a low-risk workplace
• 1:25 trained first aiders in a high-risk workplace
• 1:10 trained first aiders in a remote high-risk workplace

Completing one of the nationally recognised units of competency offered through OHS.com.au meets the requirements for having trained first aiders available. The basic first aid course (HLTAID011) is one of the most common safety courses for employees across all industries.

Along with first aid training, employees may require specialised safety training to address potential hazards. At OHS.com.au, we offer a wide range of courses through the top training providers. We can help you fulfil all your training requirements.

Duration and Prerequisites for First Aid Training in Maroochydore

CPR training (HLTAID009) is a shorter course and may last four to five hours. After the successful completion of the course, you receive a certificate of completion.

The enrolment requirements do not include any prerequisite courses. You do not need any experience with first aid. Participants must provide valid identification and have the right to work in Australia.

Refresher Training Requirements for First Aid and CPR Courses

After completing a first aid unit of competency, you should retake the course once every three years. CPR training should be repeated each year. Continuing your education ensures access to the latest training methods and most up-to-date first aid procedures.

Refresher training is recommended as part of the current industry standards for workplace safety. Repeating the training is also recommended as part of the code of practice for first aid in the workplace.
