Performance Evidence:

The candidate must show evidence of the ability to complete tasks outlined in

elements and performance criteria of this unit in the context of the workplace or

community setting.

There must be evidence that the candidate has completed the following

tasks in line with State/Territory regulations, first aid codes of practice, first

aid guidelines determined by the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) and

other Australian national peak clinical bodies and workplace or site

procedures:

managed, in line with ARC guidelines, the unconscious, breathing casualty

including appropriate positioning to reduce the risk of airway compromise

managed, in line with ARC guidelines, the unconscious, non-breathing adult,

including:

performing at least 2 minutes of uninterrupted single rescuer

cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (5 cycles of both compressions and

ventilations) on an adult resuscitation manikin placed on the floor

following the prompts of an automated external defibrillator (AED) to deliver

at least one shock

demonstrating a rotation of single rescuer operators with minimal

interruptions to compressions

responding appropriately in the event of regurgitation or vomiting

managed, in line with ARC guidelines, the unconscious, non-breathing infant,

including:

performing at least 2 minutes of uninterrupted single rescuer CPR (5 cycles

both compressions and ventilations) on an infant resuscitation manikin

placed on a firm surface

managed casualties, with the following:

anaphylaxis

asthma

non-life-threatening bleeding

choking

shock

responded to at least one simulated first aid incident contextualised to the

candidate’s workplace or community setting, where the candidate has no

knowledge of the casualty’s condition prior to starting treatment, including:

identifying the casualty’s illness or injury through history, signs and

symptoms

using personal protective equipment (PPE)

providing appropriate first aid treatment

conveying incident details to emergency services or advising casualty

on any required post incident action

providing an accurate verbal report of the incident

reviewing the incident.

Assessment strategy:

Skills are demonstrated in an environment that provides realistic in-depth,

scenarios and simulations to assess candidates’ skills and knowledge.

Due to the nature of this type of training, it is acceptable for the performance

evidence to be collected in a simulated environment.

Compression and ventilation skills must be demonstrated on resuscitation

manikins following ARC guidelines for the purpose of assessment of CPR

procedures.

Simulated assessment environments must simulate real-life situations where these

skills and knowledge would be performed, with all the relevant equipment and

resources of that workplace or community environment.

Assessment resources include:

adult and infant resuscitation manikins following ARC guidelines for the purpose of

assessment of CPR procedures

workplace first aid kit

adrenaline auto-injector training device

AED training devices

placebo bronchodilator and spacer device

different types of wound dressings and bandages

blankets and items to treat for shock

personal protective equipment (PPE).

Simulated assessment environments must simulate the real-life working

environment where these skills and knowledge would be performed, with all the

relevant equipment and resources of that working environment.

Assessment Includes:

Assessment will be conducted using a range of methods including case scenarios,

questioning, written assessment, and practical skills demonstration, assessment

strategies will be based on the principles of consistency, fairness, validity, and

reliability.
