Board updates course codes for CPR training packages

30 Apr 2012

The Podiatry Board of Australia updates course codes for CPR training packages.

As part of the Board’s continuing professional development (CPD) requirements, podiatrists must hold a current cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) certificate that includes management of anaphylaxis and use of an Automated External Defibrillator from a Registered Training Organisation (RTO). Podiatric surgeons must hold a current certificate in advanced life support from an RTO.

The Board’s Guidelines for continuing professional development contain details, including the course codes, of the recommended Health Training Packages (training packages) which cover these requirements. The course codes for the recommended training packages have recently been changed by the organisation that oversees these training packages and the Board has updated the information under Training packages with the new course codes.
