Statement of Attainment

HLTAID001 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation

• Additionally, hard copies HLTAID001 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation can be purchased for a fee of $12 including postage.
• As recommended by the Australian Resuscitation Council and Safe Work, the certification is valid for 12 months and will need to be updated annually for you to keep your certification current.

Practical Skills and Assessment Workshop Include:

The participant will show the ability to complete tasks outlined in the criteria of this unit, manage tasks and manage contingencies in the context of the job role.

Practice and assessment will be completed in line with state/territory regulations, first aid codes of practice, Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines and workplace procedures:

Followed DRSABCD in line with ARC guidelines, including:

• performed at least 2 minutes of uninterrupted single rescuer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (5 cycles of both compressions and ventilations) on an adult resuscitation manikin placed on the floor
• performed at least 2 minutes of uninterrupted single rescuer CPR (5 cycles both compressions and ventilations) on an infant resuscitation manikin placed on a firm surface
• responded appropriately in the event of regurgitation or vomiting
• managed the unconscious breathing casualty
• followed single rescue procedure, including the demonstration of a rotation of operators with minimal interruptions to compressions
• followed the prompts of an automated external defibrillator (AED)
• Responded to at least one simulated first aid scenario contextualised to the candidate’s workplace/community setting, including:
• demonstrated safe manual handling techniques
• provided an accurate verbal or written report of the incident

(Online Theory) Includes:

The participant will demonstrate through the successful completion of the online theory, essential knowledge required to effectively complete tasks outlined in the criteria of this unit, manage tasks and manage contingencies in the context of the work role. This includes knowledge of:

State/Territory regulations, first aid codes of practice and workplace procedures including:

• ARC Guidelines relevant to the provision of CPR
• safe work practices to minimise risks and potential hazards
• infection control principles and procedures, including use of standard precautions
• requirements for currency of skill and knowledge
• Legal, workplace and community considerations, including:
• awareness of potential need for stress-management techniques and available support following an emergency situation
• duty of care requirements
• respectful behaviour towards a casualty
• own skills and limitations
• consent
• privacy and confidentiality requirements
• importance of debriefing
• Considerations when providing CPR, including:
• airway obstruction due to body position
• appropriate duration and cessation of CPR
• appropriate use of an AED
• chain of survival
• standard precautions
• Basic anatomy and physiology relating to:
• how to recognise a person is not breathing normally
• chest
• response/consciousness
• upper airway and effect of positional change

Followed DRSABCD in line with ARC guidelines, including:

• performed at least 2 minutes of uninterrupted single rescuer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (5 cycles of both compressions and ventilations) on an adult resuscitation manikin placed on the floor
• performed at least 2 minutes of uninterrupted single rescuer CPR (5 cycles both compressions and ventilations) on an infant resuscitation manikin placed on a firm surface
• responded appropriately in the event of regurgitation or vomiting
• managed the unconscious breathing casualty
• followed single rescue procedure, including the demonstration of a rotation of operators with minimal interruptions to compressions
• followed the prompts of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED)

Respond to at least two simulated first aid scenarios contextualised to the candidate’s workplace/community setting, including:

• conducted a visual and verbal assessment of the casualty
• demonstrated safe manual handling techniques
• post-incident debrief and evaluation
• provided an accurate verbal or written report of the incident

Applied first aid procedures for the following:

• allergic reaction
• anaphylaxis
• bleeding control
• choking and airway obstruction
• envenomation, using pressure immobilisation
• fractures, sprains and strains, using arm slings, roller bandages or other appropriate immobilisation techniques
• respiratory distress, including asthma
• shock
