Book Here

At Anzen Safety & Training, we deliver nationally recognised pain management training designed for first responders, emergency service personnel and medically supervised first aid providers. Delivered at our Nelson Bay and Tomago training centres, this course supports participants across Port Stephens, Maitland, Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter Valley who are required to provide safe and effective pain relief as part of their role.

The PUAEME008 – Provide Pain Management course develops the skills and knowledge needed to assess, prepare and administer approved analgesics in accordance with medical protocols and organisational procedures. Participants will learn to identify the need for analgesia, prepare and deliver medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, paracetamol, methoxyflurane (green whistle) and Entonox, and manage accurate record-keeping and compliance through a Drug Register.

Through hands-on, scenario-based training, you’ll build the confidence to provide safe pain relief, complete effective casualty handovers, and ensure best-practice care within first response or emergency environments.
