Review update of Unit Standard 424

Monitor and provide long-term care in an outdoor emergency situation

Additional consultation on review of unit standard 424: Assess and Manage an Emergency Care Situation during an Outdoor Recreation Activity

Following initial consultation on the proposed expiry of Unit Standard 424, feedback has indicated an ongoing need for competencies in long-term care within an outdoor setting. Consequently, Toi Mai has drafted a new skill standard tailored to the outdoor sector. Consultation on this skill standard is now closed.
