The Importance of First Aid Training

Regardless of industry or occupation, having the ability to administer first aid in an emergency situation is a vital asset, especially in more remote areas where emergency service times can be more protracted, placing the victim in far greater danger. In Australia, all businesses are required by law to have at least one qualified first aid practitioner onsite, with that number varying depending on the perceived risk associated with the work environment and the number of employees present at the premises.

Medical emergencies aren’t just confined to the workplace, they can occur anywhere at any time. The family home is one such place, especially when newborns and toddlers are present. Being confronted with an emergency situation can be a terrifying experience, but with adequate first aid training, that overwhelming sense of shock, horror and helplessness will be alleviated. At the Gold Coast Training College, all graduates of our  First Aid courses acquire the ability to handle all major emergency situations.
