Why Choose This Course
This course provides participants with the confidence and competence required to perform a rescue from a live Low Voltage (LV) electrical apparatus using a Low Voltage Rescue Kit along with performing CPR on an unconscious casualty. This training is taught according to the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines and takes personnel through both the theory of why we do CPR and includes various practical exercises with the emphasis on the ‘how’ we perform CPR.
