Group first aid training from PSTR Group (RTO 45395) is perfectly suited for medium to large organisations that require a large number of staff to be trained as a group or a large number of employees to be trained within a short time frame.
Group first aid training is important because it helps to ensure that people are prepared to respond to medical emergencies effectively.
By providing first aid training to a group of people, whether it’s a workplace, a school, a sports team, or any other type of organisation, everyone can learn how to respond in a consistent and effective way in the event of an emergency.
Some of the benefits of group first aid training include:
- Improved safety: Group first aid training can help to reduce the risk of accidents and injuries by ensuring that everyone knows how to respond appropriately in emergency situations.
- Increased confidence: When people have received first aid training, they are more likely to feel confident and competent when responding to an emergency, especially in more challenging workplace environments like mining, construction, aviation and more.
- Faster response times: By training a group of people in first aid, you can increase the likelihood that someone will be nearby to respond quickly in the event of an emergency.
- Better teamwork: First aid training can help to foster a sense of teamwork and collaboration within a group, which can be invaluable in emergency situations.
- More effective emergency response as people are all trained to the same standard at the same time, they work better is responding to an incident
