I had a very informative Basic Life Support course by Mr Rajeev from Coast2coast in Brampton. His delivery was so energetic and informative. I am happy to say it was one of the most relishing and wonderful courses I have ever attended. I would love to attend his lectures next year for the course renewal. It was such a pleasure meeting him.

Rajeev - an amazing instructor, truly. He was so kind, helpful, and never made anyone feel dumb. I’ve learnt a lot from this class, his energy was so great, and it was nice how he remembered everyone’s names in a short period of time, and referred to us by name. Will be coming back next year for my recertification! Wishing him all the best - haniya

I had a great experience in today’s Standard First Aid/CPR-C course; the group was also supportive and communicative. Our instructor was Scott(Etobicoke, Evan’s Av.)—an excellent and well-organized instructor.

It gave me the confidence and willingness to help people in any situation, utilizing my skills and training.
Highly recommend.

Saihej G
Rajeev was a great instructor. He has lots of experience and I enjoyed his stories which put into perspective what should be done in emergency situations.
In terms of the course, I think there should be more practical situations for students to demonstrate their knowledge instead of the written test in the end.
Response from the owner:Saihej, thanks for leaving your fantastic review! We're very happy that you had an enjoyable training course with us. We appreciate you sharing your feedback regarding the course and it has been forwarded to our management team. Please note that the Canadian Red Cross requires students to complete the multiple-choice exam at the end of their course to officially pass.

I did the hybrid Standard First Aid + CPR/AED C course. The in-class portion with Lydia was amazing. Lydia was beyond knowledgeable and knew everything about the course like the back of her hand. It was easy to see she was very passionate about First Aid and loves to teach others about it. Every question asked from the class was answered fully. Everyone left the course with the skills and knowledge they need to help out our fellow humans :). I'll be coming back in three years for the refresher!

Those who typically require Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) training include nurses, dental professionals, firefighters, rescue team members, sports medicine and more! Register today and gain confidence in your life-saving skills. Our community counts on you!

Offering You the
Best Training

Our goal at Coast2Coast First Aid & Aquatics is to make our students feel confident in the skills they learn during their training with us. With this in mind, we strive to provide high quality training equipment for our courses. Not only is equipment important, though! We also have the best Canadian Red Cross instructors on our team, ready to help the first responders and citizens in our communities learn amazing first aid and CPR skills.

If you ever have any questions regarding a First Aid and CPR/AED training course at Coast2Coast, please contact us via email or our toll-free number: 866-291-9121. We would be happy to answer any questions or concerns you have about a training course.

First Aid & CPR/AED Training

Along with Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) training, Coast2Coast also offers First Aid and CPR/AED training courses that follow the Canadian Red Cross guidelines. Our two first aid training courses are Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C as well as Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C. Each of these courses are offered in the Traditional All In-Class format or the Online Blended format.

Each of our First Aid and CPR/AED courses are WSIB and OHS approved and taught by one of our highly trained Canadian Red Cross instructors. Practice hands-on skills such as wound care, CPR, bandaging and more with top-notch equipment, guaranteed to make you feel confident in your life-saving skills.

Currently, our First Aid and Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) courses are held separately as of April 2019. First aid training will cover basic to advanced skills as well as CPR, AED and choking for adults, children and infants. Our Basic Life Support course will have some overlap of skills, but will primarily focus on high-intensity CPR, BVM, how to work in a fast-paced environment with a team and more.

First Aid + BLS Bundle

Many students who require Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) training also require first aid training. If you require both trainings for your school program or workplace, you may be eligible for our BLS bundle discount!
To take advantage of the bundle discount, you must register for two separate courses:
1. Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C OR Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C
2. Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP)

This discount will be applied to the Basic Life Support registration, reducing the price to $39.99+HST per person.

Frequently Asked Questions

When an emergency strikes, you may find yourself all of a sudden in a Disaster Film situation 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, physicals 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.

  • 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, & you will need to have someone around who is trained in CPR.

BLS training is a 4-hour course that provides healthcare professionals in-depth training on how to perform CPR in a fast-paced environment such as a hospital. Students will learn a variety of skills ranging from high-performance CPR, using an AED, how to work as a team and more.

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

  • 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 with your employer or counsellor regarding this.

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.
