Description

Specialties

Real First Aid provides high quality simulation First Aid courses, never before offered in Australia. Real first aid uses role playing and props such as fake blood, flashing lights, sirens, and make up, to create a realistic training environment. Simulation training increases student retention through an interactive and cost effective course. Simulation training in a realistic environment is the best way to prepare for a real emergency, because in life there are no second chances.

History

Established in 2009.

Real First Aid was founded in 2009 to be different from any other type of First Aid courses in Australia. The courses are based on proven military, aviation and professional medical methods. Real First Aid creates realistic scenarios in which its students train in as opposed to slideshows and classroom theory. These scenarios utilise special effects such as smoke, lighting, sounds and makeup.
