First-aid course

Try our fun, hands on realistic first-aid training in a no pressure learning environment

Airway Management

This course is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and skills to create a patent airway, the interventions to maintain it, and the equipment available to carry out these skills.

Participants will gain the knowledge and skills required to provide the appropriate interventions, including measuring and inserting the applicable airway adjunct based on the patient’s condition.

COVID-19 Considerations

We are operating with smaller-than-normal class sizes and will be maintaining physcial distance where possible. With first aid classes, this will not always be possible as we will need to practice and evaluate some hands-on skills. If you are not comfortable with this please consider signing up with a partner from your bubble, or not registering for this course. Facemasks, gloves and hand sanitizer will be available in all our classrooms.
