Workplace compliant First Aid Courses and Kits - save a mate!


At the Give Life Center we believe that life is precious and with quality training and tools anyone can help save a life. We can provide both the tools (kits) and the knowledge (courses) to enable anyone to save a mate, a stranger or a loved one in their time of need.

A "First Aid Kit" Is a collection of tools that enables a trained or untrained individual to implement first aid measures that improves the condition of the injured person.

All of our First Aid Kits are designed by first aid professionals with years of experience in the first aid field.

Each one of our kits is tested to meet high international standards, exceeding CE, FDA and TGA approvals.

We take pride in ensuring that even the smallest detail is considered, such as placing non latex gloves in all of our kits.

For the workplace we have three specific kits:
1: Soft Bag First Aid Kit - ideal for tradies, truckies, small work places,
2: First Aid Box - ideal for offices, low risk worksites with up to 50 people
3: EMT Bag Kit - ideal for high risk workplaces, remote work sites, sports clubs, schools

Our kits are customisable to suit specific needs.
A "First Aid Course" enables a first responder to an emergency or accident to render proper first aid to a second person or persons who need immediate help.

A first aid course will give you the skills and knowledge to stabilise an injured person until professional medical officers can arrive.

The skills and knowledge you acquire can mean the difference between life and death for an injured person.

Different state OHS laws require that each workplace have a designated first aider on site. This ranges from a Level 1 to a Level 2 - we recommend all states have a minimum Level 2. Our first aid courses are run by ex-paramedic instructors.

Our courses include:
1: Level 2 (HLTFA301C)
2: Level 1 (HLTFA201B)
3: CPR (HLTCPR201A)

The Level 2 Course is run over two days but can be done in one day with on-line studies.

At the Give Life Center we take pride in offering and running the best first aid courses in Melbourne. We make sure that the participants fully understand all aspects of first aid and how to apply it, so they are not just turning up for some paperwork. We have the same principle with our first aid kits - fabric plasters instead of plastic band-aids for instance - so that the customer receives a quality kit they can use. Contact us today for a first aid kit or a course and save a mate...

Health & Safety Made Simple for Business

 

Ensuring your business is always up-to-date with its OHS obligations is an absolute necessity.

OHS laws affect you if you manage anyone - full-time, part-time, casual or contractors, no matter what industry you're in - and you need to make sure you are doing everything possible to comply with them.

But sometimes, keeping on top of Australia's complex OHS laws can be extremely difficult - especially when there is a drastic change to the legislation...

As you are no doubt aware, the brand new Work Health and Safety Act is in the process of taking effect across the country, and when it's enacted in your State or Territory, you will have to adjust to a whole host of new safety duties and responsibilities.

But there's no need to panic...

There is a simple way you can to keep up-to-date with the new WHS Act and other changes to OHS laws - and make sure you stay on top of all your new obligations.
