First Aid

In the event of a time critical or life threatening emergency, call 000 (triple zero).

The University is committed to providing a safe workplace for staff, students, contractors, and visitors.

If you need first aid help, the University has trained first aid officers who can assist you with your general first aid needs. If they are unable to assist you, they will call for support.

There are fully trained first Aid Officers and first aid equipment (first aid kits and defibrillators/AEDs) on each of our campuses.

Additionally, all Campus Security officers are trained in first aid and able to assist you.

Defibrillators/AED’s

All campus first aiders are trained in the use of AEDs, however technically anyone can use a defibrillator. If there is a normal heart rhythm, an AED will not allow a shock to be delivered, meaning there is no chance of harming a person during the application of the device.

An AED is there for use in the event of a sudden cardiac arrest. Anyone can use an AED, the machine provides full instructions until the ambulance arrives.

Be familiar with the location of the nearest AED in your area.
