Course units
This course includes both a web-based and a practical unit to complete.
Online Pre-Course Learning (4-6 Hours)
What is this unit?
This online pre-course learning component covers the essential theory required for advanced resuscitation. It introduces advanced resuscitation principles, oxygen therapy, and airway management concepts to prepare students for practical application.
Why it matters
Advanced resuscitation skills can be critical in life-threatening emergencies. Understanding oxygen delivery systems, airway management techniques, and resuscitation protocols ensures responders can provide effective, evidence-based care when every second counts.
What you’ll learn
You will learn advanced resuscitation protocols, safe administration of oxygen therapy, airway management techniques and equipment use, along with key safety considerations and clinical decision-making skills for emergency scenarios.
How you’ll be assessed
Assessment is completed online through multiple-choice knowledge assessments. Students must successfully complete all required theory modules before progressing to the practical session.
Practical benefit
Completing the online component ensures you arrive at the practical session confident and prepared. With a solid understanding of advanced resuscitation theory, you can focus on hands-on skill development, real-time application, and refining your technique under trainer guidance.
Practical Course Learning (3 hours)
What is this unit?
This practical training session (approximately 3 hours) provides hands-on instruction in advanced resuscitation techniques. Using industry-standard equipment and realistic simulations, students apply their online learning in a supervised, interactive environment to provide resuscitation or oxygen therapy.
Why it matters
In critical emergencies, practical skill and confidence are just as important as theoretical knowledge. This session ensures you can competently operate resuscitation equipment, manage airways, and deliver oxygen safely and effectively in real-life situations.
What you’ll learn
You will gain hands-on experience with adult and infant manikins, BVMs and oxygen equipment, suction devices, airway adjuncts, and pulse oximeters, while practising oxygen resuscitation, CPR, AED use, airway management, bleeding control, and realistic emergency scenarios.
How you’ll be assessed
Assessment is conducted through direct observation during practical activities and scenario-based simulations. Trainers assess your ability to perform resuscitation techniques safely and effectively using the required equipment.
Practical benefit
By the end of the session, you will have the confidence and capability to manage advanced airway and resuscitation emergencies using specialised equipment. The realistic simulations ensure you are job-ready and prepared to respond calmly and competently in high-pressure situations.
