Australian Fire & First Aid

Provide First Aid in an education or care setting HLTAID012

Do you work in the education sector? Perhaps you are a teacher, child care worker or home based child care provider? If you answered yes, then you need this course which includes Provide First Aid, CPR, Asthma and Anaphylaxis training. In fact you would have completed this training before you were allowed to commence your employment or business. At Australian Fire & First Aid we deliver the rest of the training that everyone else forgets, the ‘what happens next’ duties that must be completed after an incident.

As educators you understand that relying on working memory to connect blocks of information, to convert knowledge to long term memory, is a very effective strategy. This is the premise our education first aid employs that has ensured our course has become very in demand by teachers and institutions, in both government and private sectors.

Teaching first aid in one meeting and then discussing your reporting responsibilities in another, is fragmented and doesn’t always translate to long term memory. In 2025 legislative and reporting obligations are numerous, they vary greatly between facilities. Our team will not only help you to first review and assess your post incident protocols to ensure all obligations are being met, but deliver that information to your educators in a cohesive way that ensures it becomes the natural next step, after packing away the first aid supplies.

Does your facility or location experience recurring issues? From seasonal bites and stings to mishaps with weather induced asthma, each facility can face numerous unique first aid scenarios daily. We include additional units of study as a standard inclusion, to address any common, recurring or expected issues your facility faces to ensure your team are fully equipped to handle the inevitable incidents that occur in childhood education and care facilities.
