HLTAID014 – Provide Advanced First Aid

In real emergencies, situations do not always go according to plan. Multiple casualties, serious injuries, moving injured people and complex medical emergencies can be challenging without the right preparation.

This Advanced First Aid and CPR Course provides practical, hands-on training designed to prepare participants for challenging workplace and community emergencies.

Participants will develop the confidence and skills required to coordinate emergency responses, manage multiple casualties and provide advanced first aid until professional medical assistance arrives.

Training is delivered in line with Australian Resuscitation Council guidelines and other recognised national standards.

Through realistic scenarios, participants will gain experience using specialised equipment for first aid, resuscitation and oxygen therapy.

This course is delivered as a blended program combining online learning with face-to-face practical training.
