What Our Customers Are Saying About Us

Frequently Asked Questions

What does my workplace need to provide for onsite training?

I supply the adrenaline autoinjectors (both Epipens and Anapens) and all training equipment required for the class.

All I need from your workplace is enough chairs for each of the participants and an open area to train in.

Is there a minimum number of participants required for a group booking?

I require a minimum of 6 participant to run an onsite workplace group training session

Is there a maximum number of participants allowed in a group booking?

I can train a maximum of 20 participants at a time. If maximum amount of participants are being trained I require enough room for manikins to be placed on the ground and an extenstion of 30 minutes will be added to the training session to allow for adequate practice and assessment time and ensure your team receives quality training.

If there is insufficent space at your venue then back to back express classes are always a great alternative to ensure the best training for your staff.

Do you train with Epipens or Anapens?

At Resus Ready I believe in equiping you with the knowledge and skills so you feel confident in an emergency situation no matter what device you are presented with. This is why I train you in BOTH Epipens and Anapens. This is because you do not know which device will be available to you and it is important you know how to use both adrenaline autoinjectors.

What is a USI and how do I find my USI ?

A USI is your Unique Student Identification number. This is issued by the Government and you keep it for life. If you have completed any VET training such at HLTAID011 Provide First Aid or other Nationally Recognised courses then you will likely already have a USI.

Your USI contains all your Nationally Recognised Training records from Janurary 1st 2015 onwards.
