First Aid Course Hobart

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

The official designation for a first aid course is HLTAID011 Provide First Aid. This course is crucial for acquiring skills necessary to respond to emergencies, accidents, and potentially life-threatening situations. Within our courses, you’ll learn various emergency first aid response skills, including wound cleaning and dressing, correct usage of an Epi-Pen, the significance of the recovery position, provision of basic emergency life support, and effectively describing an emergency situation over the phone to assist emergency responders. Additionally, you’ll be trained on safely managing various first aid situations, including:

  • Vomiting
  • Choking
  • Asthma
  • Bleeding
  • Anaphylaxis
  • Shock
  • Broken bones
  • Dislocations, fractures, sprains, and strains

Our first aid training sessions entail three (3) hours of in-person, hands-on instruction conducted within a classroom setting. Your session will encompass diverse readings, informative presentations, and practical exercises, culminating in assessment activities to gauge your understanding and skills. Upon successfully meeting the course requirements, you will receive a nationally recognised first aid certificate acknowledging your achievement.

WHO NEEDS A FIRST AID COURSE?

The significance of undertaking a first aid course cannot be emphasised enough. Acquiring these skills enables individuals to make a significant difference when faced with critical situations. Emergencies may arise in various settings – workplaces, public spaces, or any unexpected location. Possessing first aid knowledge empowers individuals to step in and offer crucial assistance during moments of crisis.

Taking a first aid and CPR course is essential for everyone. A medical emergency can occur at any time, and you can’t help if you don’t know these vital and practical skills. In these moments, you don’t have the time to look up how to perform first aid, you need to already know, and the only way to know is by taking a course.

Skills Training College has a range of courses that can help you save a life. All you need to do in order to get started is book yourself into one today and start your journey toward earning a first aid certification. 

If you’ve already finished a first aid course, it’s beneficial to pursue additional studies to enhance and refine your skills, ensuring you’re well-prepared for any first aid scenario. Our specialised courses, such as the advanced first aid course and child first aid courses, offer focused training to further expand your expertise in these specific areas.

CPR Course Hobart

The formal designation for a CPR course is HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. Its primary objective is to educate students on recognising a cardiac emergency and executing safe intervention steps.

CPR is a distinct discipline within first aid, focusing specifically on resuscitation techniques. This course is tailored for individuals acquainted with first aid basics but seeking specialized knowledge in CPR. It serves those who might have time constraints, yet wish to contribute effectively during emergencies.

During the CPR course, you’ll learn the precise CPR steps, mnemonic aids for long-term retention of these steps, and the variances between performing CPR on adults and children. Upon completing the 90-minute face-to-face training, you’ll receive a nationally recognised statement of attainment, validating your newly acquired expertise.

Hobart CPR Refresher Course

The Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) highly advises individuals to undertake a CPR course annually to maintain the automaticity of crucial skills. In an emergency necessitating CPR, relying on innate skills is crucial. Regular refresher courses ensure readiness, preventing the struggle to recall procedures during critical moments.

A CPR refresher course is the same as a regular CPR course in every regard. Courses last for 90 minutes, cost $39 per person, and are conducted from our Hobart first aid & CPR training location at Rydges Hobart,
393 Argyle Street, North Hobart, 7000.
