What is Marine First Aid?

Marine First Aid training courses are for those who work in marine environments and require first aid and CPR/AED training. These courses will cover a variety of topics ranging from head and spine injuries, airway emergencies, environmental emergencies and more!

Understanding and knowing how to perform first aid and CPR/AED skills is an important aspect of working in the marine or fishing industry. Depending on your job, there may be times where you do not have access to a doctor or hospital for a long period of time but require first aid. Our training courses will not only provide you the skills and knowledge required to assist others with various emergencies, but also ensure your confidence while doing so, keeping you and your co-workers safe.

Marine Basic First Aid

Coast2Coast offers the Canadian Red Cross Marine Basic First Aid course, which meets all the standards and requirements of Transport Canada outlined in Transport publication (TP) 13008 E. This is a comprehensive 16 hours, two day training course which allows the participant to earn a rating certificate or endorsement, Master or Chief Mate limited certification, provide first aid on board a vessel engaged on a near-costal voyage, class 2, or sheltered waters.

These life-saving skills are taught to help identify, avert and respond to medical emergency situations with proper first aid and CPR revolving around scenarios encountered by the marine/fishing industry. Keep yourself and your co-workers safe and learn Marine Basic First Aid & CPR/AED today!

Scott is a really good trainer. I have been to many First aid/CPR courses in the past with other training companies, but this one was different. Scott used real life situations and techniques that make it easier to understand the acronyms, etc. I would really recommend you have your trainings with Coast to Coast.

Ilona
I recently completed the Standard First Aid + CPR C course with instructor Rajeev K, and I can’t recommend it enough. Rajeev is incredibly knowledgeable and brought a wealth of real-life experience and examples to the training, which made the content not only more engaging but also relevant. He made a full 9–5 day feel light and enjoyable with his positive attitude, great sense of humour, and clear passion for teaching.

The room we trained in was spacious and comfortable, which helped us stay focused throughout the day. We used excellent practice materials, everything we needed to get hands-on and properly learn the techniques.

Rajeev kept the whole class engaged and created an open, welcoming environment where everyone felt comfortable asking questions and participating. He was incredibly thorough during the practical portions and made sure each of us had the chance to get the techniques right. His ability to connect with the class and explain things clearly stood out.

Both my friend and I left the course feeling confident in our ability to handle real-life situations requiring first aid and CPR, and that’s all thanks to Rajeev’s outstanding instruction & the Coast2Coast course set up.

The online component we completed before the in person training was great and comprehensive, and you have access to the full guide to follow along and keep for reference. If you’re looking for a course that’s informative & engaging, this is the one to take.

Thank you Rajeev & Coast2Coast!
Response from the owner:Ilona, thanks for leaving your fantastic review! We're very happy that you and your friend had an enjoyable course with us at our Kitchener first aid and CPR training facility. Anyone can be a hero and now you're ready to save a life since you have completed a safety training course with us! We're so glad that Rajeev made your training welcoming and comfortable and that you learned so many valuable life-saving skills! Hope to see you again for recertification. Stay safe!
ItsAabha
I had the pleasure of taking a First Aid & CPR course with Coast2Coast, and Instructor Ali truly stood out. His teaching skills are exceptional—he explained complex concepts in a clear, easy-to-understand way and adapted his approach to suit different learning styles in the group. Ali was not only knowledgeable, but also incredibly organized and professional. He created a learning environment that was both thorough and supportive, helping us build real confidence in our abilities. It’s rare to find an instructor so skilled and dedicated. Highly recommend taking a course with him!

I recently completed a First Aid & CPR course with Coast2Coast First Aid, and I have to say, Instructor Ali was outstanding.

His real-world examples made the training both practical and engaging. I left the course feeling confident and well-prepared, thanks to his excellent instruction. Highly recommend both the course and Instructor Ali!
