Why do I need CPR?

First Aid Pro Adelaide’s HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation course gives learners the knowledge, confidence and skills to recognise potentially life-threatening CPR emergencies and respond in a timely and effective manner to preserve life and minimise risks and hazards.

How do I get qualified for CPR?

HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation is a mix of knowledge (theory) and  practical (skills). If you complete the Face-to-Face course, you will be assessed on the knowledge requirements in-class. If you complete the Learning Online course, you will be assessed on the knowledge requirements online. Practical assessment is completed in-class for both courses as you must be observed performing your first aid skills by a registered trainer.

How do I do CPR Face-to-Face?

The more ‘traditional’ way to complete a CPR course, Face-to-Face training is entirely classroom based. All theory and practical assessment tasks are completed within a single 2-hour session run by a certified CPR trainer. There is no need to do any online or out-of-hours assessment, everything is covered in class.
