Advanced First Aid (IPOS)

This course is suitable for people aged 18+ who require a higher level of first aid training other than the First aid at work certificate. The First Aid Regulations 1981 & 1982 allows organisations to seek higher levels of first aid training to match their specific needs. Organisations whose needs assessment has identified a requirement for additional first aid training, such as having employees working in hard to get and remote locations, such as in Forestry, construction, in-shore fisheries, highways & other high threat areas found in the Security & Events sectors may find this level of training suitable for their needs.

Additional topics covered above the First aid at work syllabus, such as roles & responsibilities, minimising risk of infection, gaining patient consent, this course goes deeper in to situations and treatment for a variety of injuries and medical conditions and the Principles of Scene Management as the Initial Person on Scene at the Incident.
