NeckSafe® is the only course in Australia devoted to the Acute Management of Spinal Injuries

The NeckSafe® Programme teaches the first person on the scene of a potential Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) how to assess and manage the situation.

It is an 8 hour course specifically dedicated to an injury which could ruin the lives of an individual, his family and friends, and cost the community upwards of $3 million. Law suits in this area commonly top $20 million, but the social devastation can be much worse.

NeckSafe Aquatic is specifically geared toward the waterway user and all those who may be called upon to respond to still water (rivers, creeks and pools) or open water (surf)
