HLTAID011 Provide First Aid Course in Blacktown
Course Overview
The HLTAID011 Provide First Aid unit (formerly known as Level 2 or Senior First Aid) provides the essential skills and knowledge required to provide a first aid response to a casualty in line with first aid guidelines determined by the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) and other Australian national peak clinical bodies.
This course is a mandatory requirement for most Australian workplaces and is a foundational unit for careers in aged care, disability support, and childcare. You will learn to recognize emergency situations, apply appropriate first aid procedures, and communicate vital incident details to emergency services.
