Description

FIRST AID TRAINING CENTRE: Unit B 305 Madison Street

This comprehensive course covers advanced first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills, which are essential to carry out appropriate patient assessments, interventions, and ongoing care in the workplace or emergency scene.

EMR is a standalone course, but a bridging course also provides learners with a way to move from Canadian Red Cross First Responder to Emergency Medical Responder, recognizing their existing skills and knowledge in a condensed time frame.

First Responder to Emergency Medical Responder Bridging pre-course requirements include proof of current Red Cross First Responder certification.
