Refresher - Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation and Perform rescue from a live LV panel
CPR/LVR is the training accreditation required for electricians (or those who support electrical work) to obtain/maintain their electrical licence.
As an industry recognised refresher course, this training ensures that participants maintain currency with regard to their cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and low voltage rescue (LVR) competencies.
This course is aimed at those who have completed a CPR/LVR course before and both CPR and LVR competencies should be refreshed every 12 months.
The program is made up of the following nationally accredited units of competency:
- HLTAID009 – Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation
- UETDRRF004 – Perform rescue from a live LV panel
