What is First Aid?

First aid refers to the process taken to help an injured or sick person in the moments following an illness or injury. Non-medical professionals are more than capable of administering first-aid until definitive medical treatment is accessible.

From home to work or even at school, accidents and sicknesses can occur anytime, anywhere. With first-aid, minor injuries and specific illnesses often may not require further medical treatment. More, first aid can help someone recover fast, feel better, and even save lives.

At First Aid Action, we believe everyone can learn and develop basic first-aid and CPR skills. Not only can they provide you with essential skills necessary in your career or workplace, but they also empower you to save strangers, friends, and loved ones in case of an emergency.

What’s The Difference Between First Aid and CPR Training?

First aid training is a broad practice that teaches you to respond to medical emergencies. One of the topics covered in a first aid course is how to respond to the cessation of breathing or a heartbeat, which requires cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

CPR is administered exclusively in the case of sudden cardiac arrest. In turn, CPR training prepares you for this by teaching CPR and how to recognize the situations where applying it is suitable. Taking both classes can be useful in the event of an emergency.

Why You Should Take First Aid and CPR Training Courses

Save Lives

Tons of people suffer yearly from injuries or sicknesses due to a lack of quick response or timely assistance. Performing basic First Aid or CPR can double a person’s chance of survival.

Relieve Pain

Providing pain relief can help to prevent physiological changes in blood pressure, breathing, and pulse. Basic procedures such as elevating the painful area or applying an ice compress can help to relieve pain and provide comfort until greater medical treatment is available.

Establish Confidence

Knowledge of basic first aid skills helps to establish confidence and reduce the fear of helping strangers during emergencies. People trained to administer first aid are more willing to provide prompt medical attention to casualties.

Greater Awareness

First aid training automates the safety shield that prevents dangerous situations from occurring. It helps to teach you how to assess a situation and act appropriately, consequently increasing safety awareness in the workplace, at home, and in the community.

Safety Beyond the Workplace

Outside of work, first aid skills will benefit you for the rest of your life. Knowledge of basic first aid can help a friend, family member, or bystander in need of immediate medical attention.

I have been using First Aid Action for many years and for a couple of the organisations I have been involved with. Most recently, in Fig Tree Pocket (4069) at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. We love the way Luella facilitates and teaches First Aid to our team and the sessions are interactive, engaging, fun and educational. The team at First Aid action are super organised and we have built a great rapport over the years. I recommend First Aid Action for any organisation. Thank you Luella!

Jackwitz Farms is located in the Lockyer Valley and needed First Aid and CPR training updated. We reached out to Luella and she did not hesitate to travel the distance to accommodate us. What a day it was !!. We all had the best training and walked away so much more confident and could not believe how professional but fun the day was. Thanks Luella, for a great day.

My 15yo daughter completed her First Aid and CPR qualifications with Luella, working her way towards becoming a swim instructor. With Luella’s experience and gentle instruction, she is well on her way to reaching her goal. The programs cover everything she needs to know on how to save a life, including theory to hands-on practical training. An excellent investment - if you are in Redcliffe (QLD) I highly recommend anyone, young or old, allow Luella and her team to teach you this important life(saving) skill.
