Provide First Aid In An Education And Care Setting - Adelaide
Professionals in the vicinity of young children and adults generally have to be prepared for medical emergencies.

a. Providing first aid in an emergency that may or may not include a patient with asthma or anaphylactic tendencies.
b. Providing CPR to patients witnessing a cardiac arrest or other medical emergencies necessitating the measure.

3. Program Structure
The program has a large practical component embedded in the core course design. This is critical as the program contents are applicable for tense situations where even small errors can cause major catastrophes and put health at risk.
The program is delivered by professionals who bring years of experience in administering emergency measures, first aid, and CPR to dozens of patients. They bring a structured understanding of approaching the situation and staying adherent to the standard measures while being fully aware of the risks and constraints of such conditions. These professionals take a first-principles approach and establish the causal factors that necessitate first-aid and CPR applications. Then, they bring the attendees to the steep but quickly adaptable learning curve of administering such measures.
Each participant is provided with a dummy to ensure that she/he is prepared with the posture, handling, breathing, and positioning techniques necessary to administer emergency measures.
By the end of the program, the students will be able to take care of situations that include:
1. Severe injuries to the head or other body parts resulting in a shock or bleeding.
2. Patient’s exposure to toxic materials results in a possibility of poisoning.
3. Unforeseeable events result in a sprain, strain, or even a fracture. The attendees will be trained to use immobilisation techniques and bandages for providing temporary support while the patient is carried to the nearby medical facility.
4. Managing patients dealing with asthma, anaphylaxis, epilepsy, and seizures.
The program is delivered in three highly accessible formats:
1. Online Program with Four-Hour In-Person Assessment: The alternative ensures that you have the flexibility to learn the necessary procedures in your schedule. Simultaneously, the in-person examination ensures that a professional can assess and provide feedback on your performance.
