There are three types of first aid:
1. First Aid – This is the immediate care given to someone who has an injury or illness.
2. Emergency First Aid – This is the care given to someone who has a life-threatening injury or illness until they can get medical help.
3. General Care – This is the care given when someone needs comfort and reassurance but does not need medical attention at that time.
We cover all three types in our first aid courses:
Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation (HLTAI009)

Provide First Aid (HLTAID011)
Provide First Aid in an education and care setting (HLTAID012)
Provide Advanced First Aid (HLTAID014)
