A few shots from a recent First Aid course in Melbourne

We’ve hit the ground running this year with plenty of public and private courses across the country, helping people build real confidence for real emergencies.

In our courses we use moulage to create highly realistic injuries, so participants could practise responding in a lifelike environment.

⚠️ You’ll see content warnings on these images due to how some scenarios appear but real emergencies don’t come with warnings, which is why realistic training matters.

From the classroom to hands-on scenarios, every element is designed to build skills, teamwork, and the ability to respond when it counts.

𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗸𝗲𝘀 🧠
Stroke can strike without warning, knowing what to do in the first minutes may save a life and protect brain function.

Remember the 𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧 check:
→ Face: Is one side drooping?
→ Arms: Is one arm weak or hard to lift?
→ Speech: Is it slurred, jumbled or hard to understand?
→ Time: Act fast & call an ambulance immediately!

Other signs may include sudden dizziness, vision changes, numbness, severe headache, confusion or loss of balance.

If you can, check blood glucose, as low blood sugar can look like stroke, and early treatment makes a difference.

✅ Do’s: Keep them safe, monitor breathing, place on their side if unconscious, note time symptoms started.
❌ Don’ts: Don’t give food, drink, aspirin, or delay calling for help.

Early recognition and fast response can save lives and brain function! ⏱️

A seizure can happen anywhere, at any time.
Knowing what to do could save a life.

If someone is having a seizure:
1. Stay calm, reassure and call for help
2. Clear the area and removing anything they could be harmful
3. If you can, gently roll them onto their side with something soft under their head
4. Don’t restrain them, let the seizure run its course
5. Time the seizure and note how long it lasts
6. Afterward, check their airway and breathing, and reassess

❌ Don’t:
◦ Put anything in their mouth
◦ Hold or restrain them
◦ Give food or drink until they are fully awake and alert

📞 Call for Help if:
- You’re unsure or need assistance
- The seizure lasts longer than 5 minutes
- It's their first seizure
- They don’t regain consciousness after 5 minutes
- They have multiple seizures in a row

Learn these steps, share them with your team, and be prepared to respond with confidence.

💔 Key Steps to Save a Life 💔

In an emergency, every second counts!

Here’s what you need to know to make a difference when someone is unresponsive and not breathing:
1️⃣ Start CPR immediately
Begin with 30 chest compressions, then give 2 rescue breaths. 🫀💨

2️⃣ Use an AED as soon as available
It can deliver life-saving shocks to restart the heart. ⚡🖤

3️⃣ Minimise interruptions in chest compressions
Keep the rhythm steady (100-120 compressions/min). ⏱️💪

4️⃣ Follow the AED prompts
It’ll guide you through the process step by step! 🎯✅

5️⃣ Safety first
Always check for any hazards and ensure you're not touching the person during shock delivery. ⚠️🙌

Remember: Early defibrillation + high-quality CPR = a higher chance of survival.

Don’t wait for help
YOU can be the difference! ⏳

Patient Assessment

No matter which Primary Survey acronym you’ve been taught, they all serve the same purpose: a structured, systematic approach to assessing a patient and identifying life-threatening issues quickly.

🟢 First Aid Primary Survey
The foundation for first aiders, aligned with ANZCOR guidelines.
Ideal for sudden collapse, cardiac arrest, and general medical emergencies.

🔴 Trauma Primary Survey
Builds on those foundations for first aiders with more advanced skills.
Ideal for trauma, remote environments, and workplaces with higher risk or advanced equipment.

⚫ Tactical Primary Survey
Designed for dynamic, high-threat environments where care is delivered under pressure.
Ideal for hostile or high-risk locations.

There’s no one-size-fits-all Primary Survey, the key is using the right framework for the situation and your level of training.

When an emergency happens, seconds matter.
Would you know what to do?

In 2026, we’re running public First Responder Tactical Trauma Courses (FRTTC) in Melbourne.

Designed for first responders, security, government, NGO personnel and anyone who may find themselves in dynamic or high-risk environments.

Tragic incidents in Australia and around the world remind us that the right training can mean the difference between life and death.

As a registered educational partner of the Committee of Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (C-TECC), we equip participants in our First Responder Tactical Trauma Course with proven, internationally recognised TECC principles.

This course builds the confidence to act decisively under pressure:
✅ Operate safely in dynamic environments
✅ Control catastrophic bleeding
✅ Manage airways & chest trauma
✅ Threat identification & risk assessment
✅ Casualty extraction & triage
✅ High-stress, scenario-based training

This course isn’t just about skills, it’s about thinking clearly and acting decisively when chaos hits.

🚨 Limited places available due to immersive scenario-based training
👉 Apply now via the link in our bio or on our website.

Can’t make it in March? Check our website for other Melbourne FRTTC dates.
