HLTAID011 Provide First Aid

HLTAID011 First Aid Course

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.

I can confidently say that we are well placed to help with first aid needs in our workplace should we ever come across the need to. Julia provided us with great training and instilled confidence in us to trust and believe in the process. Thank you, Julia and the Response For Life team!

    Julia Zuza from Response for Life gave members of Sutherland Croquet Club a demonstration of resuscitation and how to use the AED. Julia is a fabulous instructor. She is enthusiastic, outgoing and demonstrates clearly with detailed instructions. Julia makes it seems intuitive and not too frightening to do. I think everyone there came away hoping that they never will have to use their new knowledge but confident that they could. Many thanks to Zuza. Penny Howarth
