What Is the Student Companion App?
The Coast2Coast First Aid Student Companion is a digital hub that guides students through First Aid, CPR/AED, and Basic Life Support training. Students follow along during class, review key topics, practise skills, and access their final quiz from a mobile device. Built into it is Coasty, an AI tutor that answers First Aid and CPR questions in plain language. Both are included with your course at no extra cost.
Save to Home Screen
No app store download and no account setup. Add it to your phone's home screen once and open it like any other app, built for quick access during class.
Course Agenda & Logistics
Everything you need for the day in one place: the course flow, class timing, break and lunch expectations, your location and parking details, and what the final quiz requires.
Interactive Learning Topics
Jump straight to the module you need to review:
- Responding to Emergencies, and Check, Call, Care
- Choking, CPR and AED, and circulation and breathing emergencies
- Wound care, head, neck and spinal injuries, and bone, muscle and joint injuries
- Sudden medical emergencies, environmental illness, and poisons
Assessment Centre
A direct portal to launch your final quiz once your instructor tells you it is time. No hunting for links or logins mid-class.
Inside the Student Companion App
Course agenda, learning topics, the Coasty AI tab, and the assessment centre, all on your phone.

Coasty AI & Student Companion FAQ
Medically reviewed by Aryan Sekhavati, Director.
Yes. The Student Companion app and the Coasty AI tutor are included with every First Aid, CPR/AED, and BLS course at no extra cost. There is nothing separate to buy.
No. The Student Companion runs in your mobile browser. Your instructor shares the link for your class, and you save it to your home screen so it opens like any other app.
Anything about First Aid, CPR/AED, Basic Life Support, or the concepts covered in your course. Coasty explains protocols in plain language, walks through scenarios, and helps you review before a quiz.
