Provide First Aid in an education and care setting
The HLTAID012 covers the skills and knowledge required to provide a first aid response to infants, children and adults. The unit applies to educators and support staff working within an education and care setting who are required to respond to a first aid emergency, including asthmatic and anaphylactic emergencies.
As part of our flexible delivery model, for those who need their qualification in a hurry or are unable to attend scheduled classes, we do offer the opportunity for 1-on-1 classes, either at our campus or your location (by approval), for additional surcharge. This option will appear on the checkout page at the time of purchasing the product.
