HLTAID014 - Provide Advanced First Aid

The newest Provide Advanced First Aid Course. Replaces superseded HLTAID006 Provide Advanced First Aid.

First Aid Pro Murray Bridge’s latest HLTAID014 Provide Advanced First Aid (including CPR) Face-to-Face course is the most advanced and interactive first aid course available.

With no online or out of class assessment requirements, students enrolled in the Provide Advanced First Aid course receive as much focused one-on-one trainer support as possible.

We are one of only a few registered training organisations (RTO: 40407) certified to offer HLTAID014 Provide Advanced First Aid in Murray Bridge.

Provide Advanced First Aid, as its title suggests, is the most wide-ranging and in-depth accredited and nationally recognised First Aid training course on offer.

All the key learnings and content of HLTAID009 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation and HLTAID011 Provide First Aid are covered in their totality PLUS several more specialist subjects.

All First Aid procedures taught are in line with the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC), Safe Work Australia, Australian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA) and other national peak clinical body guidelines.

Despite its advanced title, this course is suitable for students of all backgrounds.

Why do I need Advanced First Aid?

The standard HLTAID011 Provide First Aid teaches the signs, symptoms and first aid management of most common conditions, but it does not address some of the more advanced, serious, time-sensitive and dangerous conditions. You do not ever want to be in a position where you cannot be of assistance because you only know how to assist in ‘common’ conditions. That’s why HLTAID014 Provide Advanced First Aid is such a great option.
