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.

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!
Response from the owner:Hi Aabha! Your review and recommendation are greatly appreciated. We’re glad you took action and completed a safety course with us at our North York first aid and CPR training facility!

Ashmita Tamang
I recently completed a First Aid & CPR course with Coast2Coast First Aid, and I have to say, Instructor Ali was outstanding. He was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the entire session. Ali took the time to make sure everyone understood the material, answered all of our questions clearly, and created a comfortable learning environment. 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!
Hope to see you in Nepal .

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.

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

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.
