This training goes beyond the basics, providing participants with the confidence and competence to act swiftly and decisively when faced with a medical crisis.

Key Highlights:

  1. Life-Saving Techniques: Participants will learn fundamental life-saving techniques such as CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation), AED (Automated External Defibrillator) usage, and the basics of wound care. These skills are crucial for stabilizing a person's condition until professional help arrives.

Participants will gain insights into prioritizing care based on the severity of the situation.
  4. Practical Hands-On Exercises: To reinforce theoretical knowledge, the training incorporates practical, hands-on exercises. These simulations allow participants to apply their skills in realistic scenarios, promoting muscle memory and quick response times.
  5. Team Collaboration: Effective first aid often involves collaboration. The training emphasizes the importance of teamwork in emergency situations, teaching participants how to communicate efficiently and delegate responsibilities to maximize the impact of their response.
  6. Legal Compliance: As a WSIB approved Canadian Red Cross Training Partner, participants will gain an understanding of legal considerations related to first aid in the workplace. This includes knowing when to seek professional medical assistance and documenting incidents properly to meet regulatory requirements.
