The Local Jobs Local People Program is running one July 15th
HLTAID011 – Provide First Aid course
Sydenham Neighbourhood House - Taylors Lakes, VIC
Wednesday, July 15 • 9 AM - 4:30 PM
Nationally recognised First Aid training for construction, covering emergencies, injuries and AED use for safer workplaces.
The HLTAID011 – Provide First Aid course is designed to equip participants with the skills and confidence to respond to medical emergencies and administer first aid in civil construction environments until professional medical assistance arrives. This comprehensive course includes both theoretical and practical components, delivered in line with the latest Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines.
Participants will learn how to perform CPR, use an AED (defibrillator), and manage injuries commonly encountered on construction sites, such as cuts, burns, fractures, crush injuries, and sprains. The course also covers how to respond to a range of medical emergencies including asthma, anaphylaxis, cardiac arrest, heat-related illness, and shock. Additional training includes legal responsibilities, infection control, incident reporting, and how to assess and manage emergency situations while maintaining site safety.
This course is delivered through blended learning, with online theory completed prior to attending a one-day, face-to-face practical session. The hands-on training uses realistic civil construction scenarios to ensure participants develop the confidence and capability to respond effectively in high-risk work environments.
Upon successful completion, participants receive a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment for HLTAID011 – Provide First Aid. This certificate is valid for three years, with CPR (HLTAID009) recommended to be refreshed annually to meet civil construction compliance requirements.
This certification is essential for designated first aiders, supervisors, and safety personnel working on civil construction sites, including roadworks and infrastructure projects. It is a critical component of workplace health and safety, ensuring workers are prepared to respond quickly and effectively to incidents and emergencies on-site.
