Hi to all of our gungahlia first aid friends

a reminder of the international mobile we can call when you need help

Emergency Tip: Dial 112 for Help Keep this emergency tip in mind: Dial 112 on your mobile when you don't know what to do. It's a universal number for help! Stay safe and be prepared.

We have been asked to attend the CBR Small Business EXPO at Exhibition park on Thursday. Booth 46 should be fun

The recent data shows that in 2022, 195 workers in Australia lost their lives due to work-related incidents. This sobering statistic underscores the critical need to enhance awareness of workpl...

FAQ - changes over time to the compression-to-breath ratio. Based on research and evidence over the years, the CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) guidelines have evolved over time. The ratio I first used on the scene in the 70s in Victoria was 5 compressions to 1 breath, which has been updated to the current ratio of 30 compressions to 2 breaths. This change occurred gradually over the years as studies showed that continuous chest compressions are more effective in maintaining blood flow to vital organs during CPR. The American Heart Association (AHA) made this update in their guidelines only in 2005, and it has been widely adopted since then.

Hi, we are back from our last overseas training commitment and our classes and our popular small classes are now more available. Please book early for your renewal or for travel etc and have fun with us.

Electricians - low voltage rescue (LVR) training is very popular at Gungahlia first aid.

Low-voltage rescue training can provide electricians with valuable skills, safety knowledge, and career opportunities in an evolving industry. It's essential for electricians to stay informed and continuously improve their skills to remain competitive and ensure the highest level of safety and service for their clients.

We often run LVR training early in the morning to minimise disruption to your business too!!! all part of genuine customer service

Thank you to the students (our Gungahlia Friends) for nominating us. this has made us smile so much more!!!

Received this feedback from a client today. This is why we love doing what we do.

Kate:

The organisation I regularly volunteer with recently had a Certificate First Aid Course conducted in house. I was invited to participate and, as I had not done a First Aid course for a long time I needed to update knowledge and skills accepted the invitation. Although as a senior member of the community, I was anxious about my ability to follow the course and retain the information. I was pleasantly surprised and found the information presented and procedures demonstrated were very informative and easy to follow. Presenter, Peter Bickerton, was very responsive to questions and readily assisted when needed in a supportive and non-critical manner.
