CPR and First Aid Training
Heart Safe Australia provides both First Aid and CPR Training to individuals and groups to support our different Life Saving Programs.
Both training can be done with a combination of online and face-to-face training depending on your needs and availability.
CPR Training
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) delivers the knowledge and skills necessary to maintain breathing and circulation in an adult, child or infant following cardiac arrest or other emergency.
First Aid Training
You'll learn how to examine a casualty, use a defibrillator, familiarize yourself with basic life support and learn how to control bleeding and trauma. These provide the skills to overcome a potentially threatening situation long enough for medically trained individuals to arrive on scene.
