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.
