Saving lives and improving equality in every course 🙌
Women are 27% less likely to receive CPR 💔 Inequality reaches into every corner of our lives—from pay gaps and leadership roles to healthcare disparities. Shockingly, it also affects our chance of surviving a cardiac arrest. These gaps won’t close on their own. At HERO, we’ve taken action by incorporating manikins with breasts into every first aid course we run, ensuring everyone has the knowledge and confidence to save a life— boobs or no boobs! This initiative has made us a proud finalist in the Telstra Business Awards Accelerating women category! It’s simply not good enough that our mums, nans, daughters, wives, and sisters have less access to lifesaving measures than men. It’s time to change that.

You'll probably never be unconscious on a table like this. If you were unconscious, most likely you would end up slumped on the ground. This is why during your first aid training, we require all participants to demonstrate that they are able to get onto the ground to perform CPR and save someone's life. In fact, any Registered Training Organisation is legally not allowed to mark you off as competent at CPR if you are unable to get onto the ground to demonstrate CPR. Unfortunately, there are some dodgy RTOs out there who might turn a blind eye and allow it. But If you were the one lying on the ground, needing CPR, would you want someone who was marked off as competent in providing CPR but can't get onto the ground to perform it on you?

Educators 📢 This is something important you guys should know about! Broken bones are common in little ones because their bones are more fragile than adult ones. Sometimes it can be really tricky to know if your little one has broken something, they can act normal even with a broken bone, and they may not have the communication abilities to tell you yet. Here is what the subtle sign of not weight bearing might look like: Limping (not using one of their legs) Holding arm in a set position Keeping the the limb still Crying when limb is used Not putting weight onto the affected limb Educators, have you had an experience with this in your ELC or school before?
