ABOUT REMOTE SAFETY SOLUTIONS – RSS is not your normal first aid training provider, there is no powerpoint and there are no boring presentations! RSS believes in immersion training which means learners be getting hands-on treating lifelike injuries which we know aids in the delivery and retention of vital lifesaving skills and knowledge. This method also ensures that learners with L&N issues are not lost in the course and critical life-saving skills are obtained.

During the course your highly trained and industry experienced trainer will utilise a bush setting as their classroom, this means that learners will be taught to deal with and respond to a number of realistic first aid emergencies which aids in the knowledge and skills development but also prepare you for any unforeseen incident that may occur. Conducting this type of training in the environments you work also aids in highlighting any issues that may present themselves in such incidents allowing you to prepare and adjust as required. Its also allows you to see and understand issues associated with communicating and managing the injured and the course scenarios allow you to also test and or create Emergency Action Plans for your use.
