Working remotely? In remote situations or isolated sites, medical assistance may be delayed or difficult to obtain.
The Provide first aid in remote or isolated site, is not your average workplace training course; this program aims to develop your first aid skills and knowledge so you can confidently and competently provide an emergency first aid response and emergency life support to casualties in remote or isolated sites.
This comprehensive yet uncompromisingly practical course includes planning and preparing for going remote, assessing and recognising emergency situations, applying appropriate first aid responses, communicating details to emergency services, coordinating evacuations and first aid activities until assistance arrives, and reviewing the incident.
Our unique approach to training aims to empower, energise, inspire, and challenge you. Realism in Training ensures that our training is definitive in its quality and leaves you knowing that if needed, you will know what to do and how to do it.
