I cannot say enough how much I like taking my level 3 CPR with Coast2Coast. This is my second time and they make it so enjoyable. Maria is a wonderful instructor. I had some medical issues that made my in class a challenge and Maria was extremely accommodating and patient with my issues. I was very inpatient and frustrated over the phone with staff and they were so great, kind and patient in helping me. She was also very kind to someone who could only speak French, taking the time to make sure they could learn with us. I highly recommend Coast2Coast and Maria.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Dawn! We're so glad to hear you've had such an enjoyable experience taking your CPR Level C with us for a second time in Nepean.

Dimitrih was a great instructor! I took his first aid class through my work and it didnt feel like it was 8 hours long. He kept the mood/feeling light, asked questions to the group as well as let us ask him questions whenever we needed to. He was very precise in his descriptions and outlined all necessary learning material effectively. Allowed us to take brakes when needed, and made sure we were all on schedule, outlining all areas needed to feel confident in the learning material!

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:

  • Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C
  • 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.

BLS vs CPR: What’s the Difference and Which Course Do You Need?

Life-threatening emergencies can happen at any time, and it's crucial to know how to respond quickly and effectively. If you're not trained in emergency response, terms like "BLS" and "CPR" might sound confusing and even interchangeable. However, understanding the difference between these two life-saving certifications will help you be prepared and meet workplace requirements.
