First Aid and Basic Anatomy for Assessors

The provided assignment details a comprehensive first aid training course designed specifically for assessors. The document covers a wide range of medical conditions, including injuries, poisoning, respiratory distress, and unconsciousness, as well as basic anatomy related to the upper airway and chest response/consciousness. This assignment is likely part of a larger educational program, possibly in a healthcare or emergency services context. The required evidence mapping section suggests a structured approach to verifying knowledge and skills in first aid, indicating that assessors are expected to demonstrate competence in these areas. Overall, this document appears to be a valuable resource for individuals seeking to develop their first aid skills, particularly in an assessment or training capacity.

Explain a scenario where the candidate has
successfully responded to an emergency
situation. Please include the following in the
scenario:
1.1. Recognise an emergency situation.
1.2. Identify, assess and manage immediate
hazards to health and safety of self and others.
1.3. Assess the casualty and recognise the need
for first aid response.
1.4. Assess the situation and seek assistance
from emergency response services.
I analysed that in an organisation the
major emergency occur due to lacking
healthy and safe working conditions at
workplace. Therefore, in my opinion,
organisations should have appropriate
first aid facility in case of emergency
and moreover the employees should be
provided with appropriate training and
development session to make them
aware about all the situation and ideas to
escape in case of uncertainties.
Moreover the firm should make
available appropriate first aid facility in
case of emergency .

Explain a scenario where the candidate has
successfully applied appropriate first aid
procedures. Your response must address the
following key points:
2.1. Perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation
(CPR) in accordance with Australian
Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines.
2.2. Provide first aid in accordance with
established first aid principles.
2.3. Display respectful behaviour towards
casualty.
2.4. Obtain consent from casualty where
possible.
2.5. Use available resources and equipment to
make the casualty as comfortable as possible.
2.6. Operate first aid equipment according to
manufacturer’s instructions.
2.7. Monitor the casualty’s condition and
respond in accordance with first aid principles.
I evaluated that performing all the step
assisted me in providing first aid facility
to patients. I analysed that following the
procedure step by step helps the person
in maintaining the health standards ion
order to provide appropriate facilities
established by firm. Thus, I even learnt
that first aid principles and guidelines of
the firm are made to make work easy for
the employees.

incident. Your explanation must address the
following key points:
3.1. Accurately convey incident details to
emergency response services.
3.2. Report details of incident to workplace
supervisor as appropriate.
3.3. Maintain confidentiality of records and
According to me conveying the
information regarding emergency
situations to management plays a vital
role. Moreover, it is very important for
the organisation to take immediate
action regarding any emergency
condition. Further, I analysed that it is
necessary for supervisor to note every
part of information in detail. In my

Describe a scenario where the candidate has

performance. Your explanation must address
the following key points:
4.1. Recognise the possible psychological
impacts on self and other rescuers involved in
critical incidents.
4.2. Participate in debriefing to address
individual needs.
According to me, it is important for the
individual to understand the situation
and its consequences before reacting.
The psychological impacts refer to an
affect which is caused through some
biological factors on the people. In the
emergency situation I did not panicked
and made everyone understand the
impacts which can make the situation
work. I analysed panicking in the
emergency blocks the human mind in
which the person looses the ability to
think and react. Thus, I am satisfied with
my level of understanding and with the
way I tackled the situation.
