First Aid Certificate
First Aid Brisbane, pride themselves on offering high-quality training and excellent customer service. To that end, we go to great lengths to ensure that all candidates who successfully complete the HLTAID001 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation course are issued with their fully nationally accredited certificate on the same day or within 24 hours of completing their training.
In order to issue the certification, you will need to have completed the prior reading and associated quiz and have provided your USI (Unique Student Identifier) number see below for more information. USI numbers must be supplied prior to the completion of the training course. Failure to provide a USI number within the allotted time may result in a delay in issuing your completion certificate. (T&C)
Certificates are issued electronically and will be sent to the email address you use when registering for the course. Paper copies of the certificate are available for an additional fee of $12.00 which includes postage.
USI Requirements
In line with new government regulations, from January 1, 2018, all students undertaking a nationally recognised training course need to have a Unique Student Identifier (USI). USI’s only need be created once, and the number generated is yours for life. So, if you are already studying at college or university it is likely that you may already have a USI that you can use. Applications for a USI take less than 5 minutes and can be completed HERE.

DRSABCD Protocol
Our accredited First Aid Training teaches you about the DRSABCD protocol. It’s a way of responding to medical emergencies that you can memorise. You think of DRSABCD as Drs Abcd. The letters stand for Danger, Response, Send, Airway, Breathing, CPR and Defibrillator. These represent the steps you follow in an emergency. The first thing to do is check for danger. Then you see if the casualty responds. Next, you send for emergency services. After that, you make sure the airways are clear. Then check that they are breathing and start CPR if necessary. The last thing you do is use the defibrillator.

As well as this, you practise CPR by kneeling on the floor and pushing on a manikin. We teach you according to Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines. Managing asthma is another important part of the course, along with knowing how to use an EpiPen in case of anaphylaxis, you will be equipped to effectively respond to the most common emergencies. Such critical skills and knowledge are essential for aged care workers, healthcare professionals and nurses. But anyone benefits from this first aid training because emergencies happen anywhere. In summary, this course prepares you with the skills and knowledge required to respond effectively in a medical emergency.
