Council Member Organisations
The Australian Resuscitation Council brings together leading health, emergency care, education, first aid and community organisations to support high-quality resuscitation practice across Australia.
Our member organisations
The Australian Resuscitation Council is a voluntary coordinating body that represents major groups involved in the teaching and practice of resuscitation. Its member organisations contribute clinical expertise, education experience, community reach and sector leadership to help promote consistent, evidence-based resuscitation guidance.
Why membership matters
Resuscitation requires coordinated action across hospitals, ambulance services, primary care, defence, first aid, lifesaving, education, research and the wider community. By working with member organisations, the Australian Resuscitation Council provides a forum for shared discussion, review of scientific evidence, guideline development and national consistency in techniques and terminology.
