Course Description
Cardiac arrest can be fatal without prompt medical attention to restart the heart. However, with immediate recognition of a cardiac emergency, contacting medical help, and performing CPR, survival is possible for someone, even if unconscious and with irregular breathing.
Quick decision-making is necessary for the best chance of saving a life.
You will acquire various skills in this CPR course, which comply with the guidelines of the Australian Resuscitation Council.
These skills include:
- how to use an automatic external defibrillator (AED)
- how to change personnel during CPR while minimising interruption to compressions
- how to manage casualties who regurgitate or vomit while undergoing CPR
The course includes topics such as giving emergency services accurate incident information when transferring a casualty, evaluating an incident, identifying potential psychological effects on oneself and other first responders, getting assistance if needed, and improving relevant skills and response times.
*** This course is an enhanced online version and requires approximately 1.5 hours of online theory completion and 1 to 1 1/2 hour of face-to-face practical skills assessment. ***
