Here’s What You’ll Learn In This Course:
The HLTAID009 – Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) course provides participants with the knowledge and practical skills required to respond quickly and effectively to cardiac emergencies in civil construction environments. This training aligns with the latest Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines and focuses on ensuring participants can confidently perform CPR and operate an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) in high-risk, site-based situations.
Throughout the course, participants will learn how to recognise cardiac arrest, assess emergency situations on construction sites, and deliver effective CPR while maintaining safe work practices in line with site safety procedures. Practical training includes hands-on experience using CPR manikins and AED equipment in realistic, civil construction–based scenarios to build confidence and competence.
The course also covers essential topics such as legal responsibilities, infection control, chain of survival principles, and clear communication during workplace emergencies. It is particularly suited to civil construction workers, site supervisors, plant operators, and safety personnel who are required to maintain current CPR certification as part of site compliance.
Upon completion, participants receive a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment for HLTAID009 – Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, valid for 12 months. Annual renewal is recommended to maintain currency and meet civil construction workplace safety requirements. This course is a critical component of site safety and an essential skill for anyone working in civil construction who may need to respond to a life-threatening emergency.
