Our Values
Quality, compliant training designed to be accessible to everybody
We believe that the skills to save a life are something everybody should know about. The theory behind these skills are important, but having the confidence to use them in a medical emergency is a focal point of our training. It is also important that someone undertaking a first aid course, is confident that what they learn is consistent with the standards adopted by New Zealand. Actions for Survival is committed to following these standards and delivering a course that meets the needs of our learners and their communities.
Our Project
A community project
In 2011 Actions for Survival began work on an idea which would allow us to make first aid training accessible to all members of the community. And thus was born First Aid for All a community-based project allowing people to learn for free and offering the chance to obtain a recognised first aid qualification. We are all about helping you to gain the knowledge needed to manage a medical emergency wherever you may be at home at work tramping playing a sport or just out for a quiet evening when something life-threatening happens. We know training can be expensive and time-consuming. Our project is designed to counter both these hurdles. Having not only the knowledge but also the confidence to manage a medical emergency can be life-changing not only for you and your family but also for the complete stranger who may be the recipient of your care. Our project is designed to help make New Zealand a safer place goals that shouldn’t be difficult or frustrating. We want to enable you to learn simple skills that may one day save a life.
Our Commitment
Actions speak louder than words.
