I had an excellent experience taking the Standard First Aid & CPR course at Coast2Coast First Aid/CPR in Markham. The course was very well organized, informative, and hands-on, making it easy to understand and apply the skills in real-life situations. A special thank you to our instructor, Meera Patel, who was exceptional. She was knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly engaging throughout the class. She explained every concept clearly, demonstrated each skill thoroughly, and encouraged everyone to participate and ask questions. Her friendly and supportive teaching style made the entire course enjoyable and helped build my confidence in performing First Aid and CPR. I truly appreciate the quality of training and would highly recommend Coast2Coast First Aid/CPR in Markham.Thank you for such a valuable and rewarding learning experience!

When an emergency strikes, you may find yourself all of a sudden in a situation out of a disaster film, and the difference between a happy ending and a tragedy may just depend on your knowledge of CPR. When a person stops breathing as a result of drowning, suffocation, or physical trauma (and the hundred other things that can cause this condition), the ambulance will not make it there in mere minutes, which is often all the time you have to revive your loved one. Our first aid and CPR training Canada can give you the confidence you need in situations where every second counts.

  • What is CPR, and what does it do?
  • When is it needed?
  • How is CPR performed?
  • Do you know what to do when someone needs CPR?

The highest percentage of cardiac arrest cases occur at home and in the workplace, which is no surprise since people spend most of their time in those two places. No matter how close the nearest hospital is, the ambulance might not arrive in time, so having someone around who is trained in CPR can make all the difference.

CPR stands for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, which is a treatment administered when a person is not breathing or not breathing normally. The direct goal of this treatment is to keep oxygenated blood reaching the person’s brain. When someone needs CPR, they really need it.

At Coast2Coast, we offer three levels of First Aid training Canada:

  • Basic/Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C
  • Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C
  • Marine Basic First Aid & CPR/AED Level C

First Aid training is often a requirement for careers or school programs. Depending on your field, you may need to complete a specific course. Confirm what is required with your employer or counsellor.

Mobile Swimming is a great way to learn how to swim in the comfort of your home! If you own a pool or have a community centre with open pool hours, we can send one of our experienced swim instructors to you. Choose a time and date that works best with your schedule! Simply send us an inquiry to get started.
