HLTAID015 – Provide advanced resuscitation and oxygen therapy
According to current government standards, the most up-to-date training is HLTAID015 Provide advanced resuscitation and oxygen therapy. This course replaces HLTAID007. HLTAID015 is designed for health professionals (including doctors and nursing staff) who require the use of oxygen therapy.
Many of our first aid courses are suitable for beginners.HLTAID015 is not one of them. It requires a sound understanding of first aid. It’s assumed that anyone signing up for the HLTAID015 course has already completed an accredited HLTAID011 Provide First Aid course. You will need these skills in order to take HLTAID015.
FirstAidPro Sydney is a fully accredited Australian RTO (Registered Training Organisation). Our HLTAID015 Provide advanced resuscitation and oxygen therapy course is compliant with all government standards for first aid training and is recognised nationwide. Our first aid training courses align with the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) standards and various other peak clinical bodies such as Safe Work Australia.
All of our training is very hands-on, and the Advanced Resuscitation and Oxygen Therapy course is an excellent example of this. Our training courses are highly immersive and provide a supportive environment to learn. Our trainers are qualified and experienced and always willing to answer questions. Students get the benefit of many years of real-world practical experience as part of the training. You’re not going to find a better option when it comes to learning CPR and oxygen therapy.
During the training, students will receive training in the following:
- CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation)
- AED use (Automated external defibrillator)
- Assessing vital signs (respiration, pulse, oxygen saturation)
- Basic airway adjuncts
- The “five rights.”
- Safe administration of oxygen (legal requirements, correct use, cleaning, sterilisation and storage of oxygen equipment)
Supersedes HLTAID007
The previous standard in this area – HLTAID007 Provide advanced resuscitation – is now outdated. Originally established as a training standard by the National Register on Vocational Education and Training (training.gov.au), the HLTAID015 course now supersedes this standard. The new class is accepted in all contexts where HLTAID007 was previously required – even where your workplace has older reference material that specifically requests HLTAID007 training.
Up until 2020, the highest benchmark for CPR and oxygen therapy first aid training was HLTAID007 Provide advanced resuscitation. HLTAID007, defined by the National Register on Vocational Education and Training (aka training.gov.au), has now been superseded by the HLTAID015 course. In any situation or work context where HLTAID007 training was previously required, HLTAID015 should now be the standard – even when older workplace documentation specifically refers to HLTAID007.
The updated standard includes the following qualifications as part of the course.
- HLTAID009 – Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (previously HLTAID001)
- HLTAID015 – Provide advanced resuscitation and oxygen therapy (previously HLTAID007)
Get Your Certificate Faster
HLTAID015 Provide advanced resuscitation and oxygen therapy is a half-day seminar, which generally takes place at one of our many first aid training venues. The course is usually a single 5-hour block (with appropriate breaks included). Course times can vary but are generally between 9 am and 2 pm.
The following components are part of the training:
- A Trainer-led demonstration that focuses on the uses of key equipment, skills, and techniques used in resuscitation and oxygen therapy.
- The chance to practise with the equipment, techniques and skills used in resuscitation, assisted and supervised by the trainer and including the opportunity to ask questions.
- Various practical assessments, including role-plays, observations, class debriefs, and written and verbal incident reports.
Some prior reading is necessary for the course, which is provided to you well ahead of your training date.

Trainers for HLTAID015 need to cover a significant amount of information in the time they have, so standard practice is for the doors to be closed and secured at the exact start time of the course. Latecomers will generally need to reschedule their training to another date. As such, we ask all participants to arrive 15 minutes early to avoid missing out.

Pre-Enrolment Requirements
If you’re hoping to participate in our HLTAID015 Provide advanced resuscitation and oxygen therapy course, there are several conditions.
Firstly, HLTAID015 isn’t available to anyone under 14 if youré under 18, signed consent from a parent or guardian is required.
It’s also a requirement that you’ve completed an accredited HLTAID011 Provide First Aid course – much of the learning of Provide advanced resuscitation and oxygen therapy builds on the knowledge gained from that course.
There is also a reasonable amount of physical activity involved in the HLTAID015 – most significantly as part of the CPR section of the course. To participate in the class, you must be physically capable of the following:
- Perform at least 2 minutes of uninterrupted single rescuer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (5 cycles of both compressions and ventilations) on an adult manikin placed on the floor
- Perform at least 2 minutes of uninterrupted single rescuer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (5 cycles of both compressions and ventilations) on an infant resuscitation manikin placed on a firm surface
- Operate an automated external defibrillator (AED) to deliver at least one shock
A Covid-Safe Company
The health and welfare of our training participants is a high priority for FirstAidPro Sydney. For this reason, we’re careful to follow all current government regulations when it comes to Covid-19 safety and social distancing. When taking part in one of our training courses, you’ll need to respect the following Covid 19 safety precautions (if they’re currently in place):
- Sign-in sheets for participants
- Maintaining safe social distance, where practical
- Personal protective equipment (PPE), including face masks
- Equipment and materials are regularly cleaned and sterilised
In addition, for the safety and welfare of all our students, we ask that anyone unwell or suffering from flu-like symptoms not attend. Contact us on or around the day, and we can reschedule your training to a later date at no additional cost.
USI Number
Under the current government regulations for Vocational Education and Training (VET), you’ll need a Unique Student Identifier or USI number to participate in any accredited training. Unfortunately, FirstAidPro Sydney can’t provide this number for you – you need to apply for it personally. This number is then permanently associated with you and your official records, not unlike a tax file number. All VET courses you undertake will link to this number.
Fortunately, the application process is relatively straightforward. You need to visit the USI website and begin an application.
Course Format
FirstAidPro Sydney’s Advanced Resuscitation and Oxygen Therapy is a highly interactive training course with a strong blend of theoretical knowledge and applied practical skills. Students should expect a healthy amount of each during the course.

Why do I need this course?
Understanding how to assist a casualty suffering from breathing difficulties is fundamental to the job for many professional roles.
