HLT21020 CERT II
Medical Service First Response
INTRODUCTION (HLT21020)
This Certificate involves 9 units, 5 core subjects & 4 electives. We tend to concentrate on the medical side of the electives.
There are 3 workbooks that are a prerequisite for this Cert II, these are designed for the student to complete before the course has commenced.
These workbooks are accompanied with a powerpoint presentation to assist in completing the workbooks. These 3 workbooks can be completed in 6 hours, but will need to be returned to our offices at least 1 (one) week prior to the start of the course.
There is a requirement of a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 8 persons per course.
We also add the LVR/CPR course into the program at no additional cost. Please note this is not a requirement of the Cert II but is highly recommended to be included in the training program.
