Current First Aid skills are vital in any industry and for every job role.
Overview

Anyone can be confronted with a medical emergency at any time; it is not predictable and may involve a friend or family member.
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to provide a first aid response to a casualty in line with first aid guidelines determined by the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) and other Australian national peak clinical bodies.
The unit applies to all persons who may be required to provide a first aid response in a range of situations, including community and workplace settings.

“I very much enjoyed the training. We had some fun as we learned and it is always great to have trainers that relate the material to real-life issues and events.
I’ve been a trainer myself for years and often find the training I attend to be a bit dry and lifeless. ASSET trainers kept us awake and entertained and made sure we knew what we were doing. It was fun and refreshing. ”
