First Aid at Work Query, UK - Oz
 
Hi guys!!

Just a small query but its got me thinking!! :eek:

What it is Ive recently re-validated my 'First Aid at Work' certificate a month ago (its now valid for 3 years) and next week Im revalidating my 'de-fib' certificate. (Im currently in UK hoping to go to Oz.....just in case ya didnt know!! ;) )

Well I was just wondering in Oz are these qualifications recognised or is it a completely different kettle of fish over there?? :confused:

Im still gonna do the training here in UK anyway but Im anticapating having to go through the whole lot again in Oz. Im thinking protocols/legalities will be different in Oz, I dont know??????? Ive done a search on forum and cant find anything.....

If anyone could shed any light on the subject it would be much appreciated!!

Thanks in advance!!
Cheeky :)

Hi Cheeky,

Asked Ian as he's into that kinda stuff and he reckons that the first aid at work will be ok, but thinks the de-fib will possibly need refreshing. He does the First Aid At work course here.........but I could stand to be corrected! :D

Thanks DD for the bump!! ;)

And Thanks to Phil and Ian! :)

Good news about the first aid then, cheers! The de-fib training I have to do every few months here in UK anyway, so it must be something simalar to Oz then.

Thank you!!

Cheeky :)
