  Communicate clearly in English with the trainer and other participants

• Can I get RPL for this course?

  We do not offer RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) for any First Aid courses in Australia.

  Because First Aid units have strict currency requirements and expire, all students must attend and complete the full course and assessment activities to be issued a certificate.

  Perform 2 minutes of continuous CPR on an adult manikin placed on the floor

  Kneel on the floor for an extended period

  Use your arms and upper body strength to deliver effective compressions

  Perform other basic first aid tasks such as placing someone in the recovery position, applying bandages, and using an EpiPen or asthma device
