Altona First Aid Certification

First Aid Pro is an established RTO (Registered Training Organisation) in all states across the country. Our first aid courses have the backing of prestigious institutions like the Australian College of Nursing (ACN) and the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP).

The Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) and the Australian and New Zealand Resuscitation Committee (ANZCOR) have both endorsed the quality and innovation of our first aid training, and we adhere to their recommendations in all that we do.

The ability to put theory into practice is a vital aspect of first aid. It takes practice to become proficient at anything, so it makes sense to get your first aid certification and keep it up to date. You will receive a certificate of completion the same day you finish the course that is both accredited and recognised across the country.

Available First Aid Courses in Altona

Provide CPR 

CPR is a fundamental part of every first aid curriculum, as it is the most effective way to revive a victim who has stopped breathing while waiting for medical assistance. Provide CPR includes both a knowledge test and an in-class practical exercise. For a face-to-face course, the knowledge evaluation takes up two hours of class time. In the express online course, the knowledge evaluation is done online, bringing the total class time down to 1 hour. Since CPR can save lives, it’s important to keep your skills current.

Includes:

  • HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation  sometimes referred to as CPR (supersedes HLTAID001 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation)

Provide First Aid

The first aid procedures for the most common accidents and illnesses in Australia are outlined in detail in the book Provide First Aid. Students are graded on their ability to put their first aid training into practice during class, and they have the option of completing additional knowledge assessment activities either in class or online prior to the practical. If you prefer learning in a classroom setting, the 6-hour in-person course is your best bet. Those who would rather learn at their own pace can enrol in the express online course and study and take tests online before going in for a 2-hour instructor-led session. Most emergencies can be made much less dire if first aid is administered quickly.
