HLTAID003 Provide First Aid (First Aid Level 2)

Level 2 refers to the emergency first aid at work qualification, which is designed for workplaces that fall into a low risk category. Level 3 refers to the first aid at work course, which is designed for higher risk workplaces and assigned three credits, because it takes three days (24 hours) to complete.

Q: What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 first aid courses? A: Level 1 is a shorter course than Level 2 (because Level 2 contains all Level 1 content, plus additional modules).

Some of the abilities developed in a Level 2 First Aid certificate include: Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to an adult, child and infant. Automated External Defibrillator (AED) practice.

Level 2 First Aid is a nationally accredited qualification that will improve occupational health and safety, facilitate duty of care, reduce risks in the workplace and empower course graduates with the ability to respond to any emergency with confidence and skill.
