Respond Right
courses provide you with the skills required to respond to
emergency situations. The courses offer first aid courses from
basic to advanced, including CPR and Oxygen. These courses are
vital to many industries and careers; they are also important
competencies for day-to-day life outside of work as well. Being
qualified in Respond Right will give you the skills to manage an
accident scene and provide essential first aid. Accidents and
illnesses happen every day, some people need only a helping hand
while others may suffer serious permanent injuries unless they
are given help.
By mastering the
Respond Right- Primary care (CPR) and Secondary Care
(first aid) courses you can render important care to those
in need. The skills learnt in this program can also be taken to
the work environment and will give you the confidence to assist
an injured or sick colleague, friend, family member or even a
total stranger in a time of real need. It is a self-rewarding
qualification that is helpful to all people. With the following
courses you will not only learn about first aid, but also about

much more.
