Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit describes the required skills and knowledge to develop, prepare and promote plans of action for responding to non-medical emergencies that may affect a community.

Skills must be demonstrated working: in a health service or centre as a senior member of and/or supervising a primary health care team with Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander clients. In addition, simulations and scenarios must be used where the full range of contexts and situations cannot be provided in the workplace or may occur only rarely. These are situations relating to emergency or unplanned procedures where assessment in these circumstances would be unsafe or is impractical. Simulated assessment environments must simulate the real-life working environment where these skills and knowledge would be performed, with all the relevant equipment and resources of that working environment. Assessors must satisfy the Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) 2015/AQTF mandatory competency requirements for assessors.
