First Responder is a 4-day Canadian Red Cross certification. EMR is an 8-day, 80-hour course covering patient assessment, airway management, spinal injuries, and trauma, and it is the highest pre-hospital level below paramedic. Both need a written exam and practical scenarios, and certificates last three years. Most candidates start with Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C and BLS Healthcare before advancing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers based on Ontario WSIB rules and Red Cross policy — no guesswork.
Your company size decides which you need. Workplaces with six or more employees per shift need Intermediate First Aid, also called Standard First Aid: 16 hours over two classroom days or a blended equivalent. Sites with one to five can use Emergency First Aid, also called Basic First Aid, an 8-hour course for lower-risk environments. Both include CPR with chest compressions and rescue breathing. Most workplaces require the Intermediate certification, and most Burlington residents book it.
Absolutely. Our Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C is fully WSIB approved and recognized by employers across Burlington, Oakville, and the entire Halton Region.
