5 Most Common Provide First Aid (HLTAID011) Sample Questions & Answers

Preview 5 practice questions with answers and explanations that name their source.

Sample Question 1 of 5DRSABCD Order

What is the correct order of the ANZCOR basic life support action plan?

ADRSABCD: Danger, Response, Send for help, Airway, Breathing, CPR, Defibrillation.
BDRABCD: Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, CPR, Defibrillation.
CDRCABD: Danger, Response, CPR, Airway, Breathing, Defibrillation.

Answer & Source:

The ANZCOR basic life support flowchart follows DRSABCD: check for Danger, check Response, Send for help, open the Airway, check Breathing, start CPR, then attach an AED (Defibrillation) and follow its prompts. Leaving out "Send for help" is the common error.
