1. L Operator performing CPR should stop compression and verbally notify other providers that they are
about to change.
2. Operators not performing CPR should stand behind the operator's head and place their hands on the
CPR's shoulders.
3. The operator performing CPR must then place their hands on the other operator's hips.
4. Then both operators should switch positions, with the operator performing CPR currently behind the
man's head and the other operator currently performing CPR create.
5. Operators currently performing CPR should continue to compress at the correct rate, with good form
and technique.
Part C Ans:
When placing the casualty in the recovery position, it is important to ensure that the surface is firm so that
they do not roll or slip. Also make sure that the casualty's head is tilted back and the chin is up so that
their airway is clear. If victim vomits, turn head to one side to allow vomit to drain out of mouth and airway.
If the victim is unconscious, open their airway by tilting their head back and lifting their chin. If victim
remains unconscious, look for signs of life. If there are no signs of life, start CPR.
The recovery position is a safe position for the victim until help arrives. Placing the victim in the recovery
position ensures that their airway is open and that they are less likely to choke on vomiting. If the victim is
unconscious, you can always open their airway and check for signs of life. If the victim is still
unconscious, you can start CPR.

SCENARIO 2 – INFANT CPR
One of your colleagues comes to visit your workplace during her maternity leave. She has 9-month-old
twins. The babies are sitting on the floor playing together when one begins to choke. The mother panics.
She sees some small objects on the floor nearby – her baby must be choking on one!
The other baby is crying and distressed at the commotion.
Show your assessor that you can respond to this first aid situation.
You should ensure you have an understanding of the following processes prior to commencing this
scenario.

20. Using the head tilt/chin lift method, widen the child's airway to a slightly over-neutral position.
21. Using the head tilt/chin lift technique, open the infant's airway to the neutral position.
22. Blow into the child's mouth for about one second.
23. Ensure that each breath lifts the ribcage
24. Let the air out before inhaling again.
25. Before taking the second breath, reorient the head and make sure to keep it well closed if the first
breath does not inflate the chest. If the thorax does not rise after the second breath, there may be a
foreign body restricting the airway.
26. Repeat the cycle of 30 chest compressions and 2 breaths until:

SCENARIO 3 – ALLERGIC REACTION/ANAPHYLAXIS
It is your birthday – you and your colleagues are having a morning tea to celebrate the fact that you are
getting another year older! You have cake, drinks and a big bowl of nibbles.
Towards the end of the morning tea, one of your colleagues says they aren’t feeling right and they start
to cough a little bit. Their voice sounds hoarse and they say they are starting to feel itchy on their upper
back.
They mention they have some anti-histamines at their desk, as they suffer from hay fever.
You should ensure you have an understanding of the following processes prior to commencing this
scenario.
How to make casualties comfortable and monitor their status
Consent to perform first aid
How to conduct a visual and verbal assessment
What to check prior to administering an adrenalin auto-injector

Place the orange tip against the outside of the mid-thigh while observance the leg still. Hold the auto-
injector at a right angle to the outside of your thigh.
The drug can be injected through clothing, but pockets and seams should be avoided.
If there is no response 5 minutes after the first dose, an additional dose of adrenaline may be given.
It's best to give an adrenaline auto-injector if you don't know if someone needs it. Anaphylaxis can be fatal
if not advised quickly.
If you are not sure if the person is having an asthma incursion or anaphylaxis, start with the adrenaline
auto-injector, followed by the asthma medication. Dial triple zero (000) for emergency care and maintain
first aid for asthma and anaphylaxis until an ambulance arrives.

FIRST AID DEMONSTRATIONS
In this part you will need to demonstrate the ability to use correct first aid techniques for:
a snake bite
a basic wound
bleeding
a suspected sprain/strain
a fracture
shock.
You should ensure you have an understanding of the following prior to commencing the
demonstrations.

Applying the pressure immobilisation technique
Basic wound care
Bleeding control
Sprain/strain
Fracture
Shock
Making sure your casualty is comfortable.
Treating your casualty with respect.
Knowing when to send for help.
Taking standard precautions.
jellyfish stings
fighting fish and other fish stings
bees, wasps and ants stings
scorpions, centipedes, beetle stings
Keep the bitten person as still as possible. If possible, lay the patient down to prevent the patient from
moving or moving.
Put a firm bandage over the bitten area (preferably a wide elastic bandage if available)
Then cover the entire limb (shoulder fingers or toes on the hip) - the bandage should be as tight as for a
sprain ankle.
Attach a rigid splint to the limb (piece of wood, twig, or rolled up paper)
Hold still while waiting for ambulance to arrive to transport to the nearest hospital emergency room.
One of the fastest and easiest ways to clean a wound is to use a simple cotton swab available at the
APTS first aid store. If dirt or debris is on the wound, it can be removed by rinsing with a saline solution or
applying tweezers.
CONTINUOUS CARE

Page 16 of 29
File Name: Assessment Resources April 2021 April 2022 1.0
These wounds usually heal quickly without further intervention. If there are signs of infection or the wound
is not healing, see your GP.
If the dressing becomes wet or dirty, change the dressing until the wound heals. After a few days, you
should remove the bandage and let the wound heal on its own to allow it to heal.
If you cut yourself with a kitchen knife, here's how to delicacy the wound:
Clean the wound with soap and water. Apply squeeze to the cut with a clear cloth or plaster for a few
minutes to block the bleeding. If you bleed through the tissue, place another pad on top.
Use an antibacterial balm. If it's a minor wound, apply some to the cut. Cover the area with a plaster or
gauze and bandage.
Go to the emergency space if bleeding is profuse or does not stop after 5 to 20 minutes of direct squeeze.
If the cut is larger than half an inch, has jagged edges, is inflamed, or is draining, you should also see
your doctor.
DEMONSTRATION 4: SPRAIN/STRAIN
Show your assessor that you can correctly provide first aid to a person who has a suspected sprain or
strain of the ankle.
Ans:
R.I.C.E. should be used for the first 48 hours following the injury:
Rest: Continue to rest the wounded area until the discomfort subsides.
Ice: Immediately apply an icepack or cold compress to the damaged area by wrapping it in a towel.
Continue four to eight times each day for no longer than 20 minutes at a time.
Compression: For at least two days, support the hurt area with an elastic compression bandage.
Elevation: To reduce swelling, raise the affected area above heart level.
DEMONSTRATION 5: FRACTURE
Show your assessor that you can provide first aid to a person who has fractured their forearm.

Page 17 of 29
File Name: Assessment Resources April 2021 April 2022 1.0
Ans:
First of all, do not move the person unless necessary to avoid further injury. Take the following steps
immediately while waiting for medical help:
Stop bleeding. Cover the wound with a sterile bandage, clean cloth, or clean clothing.
Immobilize the injured area. Do not attempt to realign the bone or push back the protruding bone. If you
have been trained in splints and don't have expert help available, apply splints to the area above and
below the fracture sites. Cushioning in the brace can help reduce discomfort.
Apply an ice pack to control swelling and help relieve pain. Do not apply ice directly to the skin. Wrap the
ice in a towel, piece of cloth, or other material.
Treatment in case of shock. If the person feels weak or has shortness of breath, lay them down with their
head slightly lower than their body and elevate their legs if possible.
DEMONSTRATION 6: SHOCK
Show your assessor that you can provide first aid to a person who has gone into shock.
Ans:
If you think someone is in shock, call 911 or your local emergency number. Then, immediately do the
following:
Lie down and slightly raise your legs and feet, unless you think this could cause pain or other injury.
Hold the person still and do not move them unless necessary.
Initiate CPR if the person shows no signs of life, such as not breathing, coughing, or moving.
Loosen tight clothing and, if necessary, cover the person with a blanket to prevent cold.
Do not give the person anything to eat or drink.
If you suspect the person is having an allergic reaction and you have access to an epinephrine auto-
injector, use it according to their instructions.
If the person is bleeding, keep pressure on the bleeding area with a towel or sheet.
If the person vomits or starts bleeding from the mouth and there is no suspicion of a spinal injury, turn
them on their side to prevent suffocation.
