Before we look at our Ballarat training, let's look at why becoming a certified first aider is important.
First aid is the immediate medical assistance rendered to a person who has sustained a sudden illness or injury.
Certified first aiders are trained to take control of the emergency scene and respond effectively to the casualty's condition. So while first aid treatment is not a substitute for professional medical care, it can reduce the casualty's risk of permanent disability and even death.
Certified first aiders are also trained to identify and minimise potential hazards in the home and workplace. This is why first aid training is a requirement for many Australian jobs.
First aid is the immediate medical assistance rendered to a person who has sustained a sudden illness or injury. The importance of first aid is recognised across the world, as it can increase the casualty's chance of survival and a full recovery.
The importance of first aid is demonstrated by its three key objectives - the 'Three Ps':
The 'Three Ps' play an important role in first aid situations, as they help first aiders prioritise their actions.
It is also worthwhile noting, DRSABCD primarily focuses on how to help an unconscious casualty who is in need of CPR or defibrillation. It does not focus on applying other first aid procedures, such as treating open wounds, fractures, or seizures.
For more information about the importance of first aid, please head to Resource Library. From there, you can also enrol in one of our Ballarat first aid courses.
