Basic Emergency Life Support (BELS)

“Provides participants with the skills and knowledge to manage an emergency first aid situation until professional medical support is available”


Volunteer training provides members with an opportunity to achieve nationally accredited units of competence through the delivery of certain courses. Only RTO’s such as LSV, can provide this type of training. Many of these units of competencies are recognised by other industries, in particular first aid and CPR.
