Already hold HLTPAT005? Time to upgrade.

The drug and alcohol collector qualification has been superseded. HLTPAT010 reflects current legislation, enhanced Chain of Custody requirements, donor identity procedures, and documentation accuracy standards.

With the recent urine standard update (AS/NZS 4308:2023), we recommend upgrading if your qualification is more than two years old. Your existing HLTPAT005 is still valid, but upgrading ensures your team meets the latest best practice.
