Learners undertaking the training in this unit must demonstrate CPR on an adult & infant resuscitation manikin on the floor. The infant manikin resuscitation is performed on a table.
Please note there is a level of physical ability to meet the evidence requirements for assessment. These standards relate to the level of performance required to provide resuscitation and respond to an emergency situation where there may be a risk.
Due to the potential risk to health and safety where a nominated first aider, or worker with duty of care, does not have the ability to perform resuscitation and/or first aid to the performance standard it is not appropriate to issue a statement of attainment to students who are physically unable to meet the assessment requirements.
