When are the Senior First Aid certificate, CPR and Aquatic Proficiency certification required?
The Senior First Aid certificate is required prior to commencing the course. The first aid must be equivalent to the Royal Life Saving Australia Senior First Aid. Visit http://www.rise.com.au/training/courses/training_course.asp?id=11&t=lifesavingwa To meet the aquatic proficiency requirements, the RLSA Bronze Medallion is actually more than what is required. The Royal Life Saving Australia offers a combination Senior First Aid/Bronze Medallion course, or individual Bronze Medallion course. Students could complete this in WA however it must be completed during Study Period 1 (prior to the commencement of Semester 1). As the Clinical Anatomy and Physiotherapy Practice 550 unit is intensive during the week, students will only be able to attend a course on their free weekends. See http://www.rise.com.au/training/courses/training_course.asp?id=22&t=lifesavingwa. The minimum requirements are covered by the Hydrotherapy Rescue Award, a course specifically designed for physiotherapy students
