Provide Advanced Resuscitation & Oxygen Therapy Course

Course Overview

This unit outlines the skills and knowledge necessary to use specialised equipment for resuscitation and oxygen therapy, adhering to the guidelines of the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC).

This qualification is relevant for individuals who might need to employ specialised equipment to administer resuscitation or oxygen therapy in various complex scenarios, encompassing both community and workplace environments.

Prior knowledge of first aid is essential for this advanced resuscitation training.

First Aid skills can mean the difference between life and death for a colleague, a family member, a stranger in public, or even yourself. Whether you need it for your job, your club, another environment, or simply for personal reassurance.

First Aid is not just a useful skill, it could also help save a life and can reduce the severity of injuries.

Our comprehensive course will equip you with the understanding, skills, and confidence to assist a sick or injured person until professional medical aid is available. You’ll learn the DRSABCD action plan, as well as techniques for resuscitation (including defibrillation), managing asthma, anaphylaxis, and various injuries and illnesses.

This unit was also previously known as HLTAID007 Provide Advanced Resuscitation.

Course Structure

The Provide Advanced Resuscitation and Oxygen Therapy HLTAID015 course adopts a blended learning approach, starting with an online pre-course segment followed by a 4-hour in-class practical session. The pre-study includes multiple-choice questions, which can be done on paper or online.

The pre-course study typically requires 4-5 hours, varying according to each individual’s personal circumstances and commitments. It involves reading modules and then applying the acquired knowledge in a final online exam. This pre-course work must be completed before attending the in-person training.

The course delivery combines structured lectures, workshops, case studies, videos, practical tasks, and workplace application. Activities for both individuals and groups, along with various assessment tasks, are integrated throughout the course.

The trainers and assessors responsible for delivering our course are accredited experts in their respective fields. They hold the requisite qualification(s) to deliver this course and meet the relevant professional experience requirements in line with the 2025 Standards Credential Policy.
