Qualsafe requirements to pass the course are:

• If the Learner has difficulty kneeling on the floor, they may practise with the manikin on a table or chair if it is safe. In real life, the casualty is likely to fall to the floor, so the Learner must demonstrate CPR and the safe use of an AED with the manikin on the floor at least once. Padding such as a folded coat may be provided to kneel on during the assessment.
• The Learner must demonstrate at least 2 cycles of CPR before applying the AED pads in the correct position.
• They also need to be able to demonstrate recovery position on the floor
