Dee Why CPR and First Aid courses – Vital Emergency skills

Renewing first aid qualifications

Simple Instruction is the Northern Beaches, Sydney First Aid and CPR company. Based out of the Dee Why RSL (DYRSL) we have been conducting the HLTAID004 Provide an emergency first aid response in an education and care setting for Certificate III (3) in Early Childhood Education and Care and the recommended HLTAID001 Provide CPR course. We also come out to your center and are more than happy to quote you a fair price.

ACECQA has updated its advice about renewing first aid qualifications. The information states the relevant regulation and includes Safe Work Australia’s Code of Practice recommendations. The following information is available as an FAQ on ACECQA’s website.

The Safe Work Australia First Aid in the Workplace Code of Practice recommends that first aiders should attend training on a regular basis to refresh their first aid knowledge and skills, and to confirm their competence to provide first aid. The Code of Practice also recommends that refresher training in CPR should be undertaken annually and first aid qualifications should be renewed every three years.

Your certificate should state the date on which you completed the course, as well as the expiry date, which is typically three years from the date of completion. Your certificate may include additional requirements, such as completing refresher training in CPR annually.

Please contact your training provider to check any information about your training and speak to your employer to confirm your workplace requirements.
