COVID-19 First Aid & CPR Training Protocol

All students must complete the Screening Questionnaire (see below) 24 hours before their course. If the answer to any of these questions asked in the questionnaire is YES, please contact us for a one-time free rescheduling.

The Canadian Red Cross societies have also asked all training partners to screen pre-existing conditions such as allergies causing sneezing and reschedule the training if the participant has sneezing/flu-like symptoms. This extra due diligence is requested from partners to ensure all participants feel safe and secure during the course. If this applies to you, consult our office and we will work with you to find the most suitable option.

During Training:

It is recommended that students wear a face mask and a face shield during their training due to group activities that must be performed in the class. Face masks and face shields are not mandatory but recommended. Although, if you are experiencing any symptoms, we request that you do wear a face mask.

What We Do To Keep You Safe:

In an effort to combat COVID-19, Coast2Coast First Aid and Aquatics Inc. has implemented the following procedures:

Students may receive an individually sealed student kit (Triangular bandage, gloves, conforming bandage, gauze pad, adhesive tape)*
Students will receive a one-time-use filter to practice rescue breaths
Implemented use of strong disinfectant solutions to clean surfaces and equipment before and after each training
Increased availability of disinfectant wipes to clean manikins, training equipment, and surfaces during the training
Increased availability of hand sanitizers in class to allow participants for quick hand cleaning

Handwashing:

Handwashing is highly recommended to prevent the spread of viruses and pathogens and you may be asked to wash your hands several times during the training. We recommend proper handwashing during the following instances:

Beginning and end of the class
Before and after meals/snacks

Food and Snack:

Students are allowed to eat and drink in class during breaks. To prevent the spread of COVID-19, please continue wash/sanitize hands prior to handling food and physical distance from classmates.

Textbooks:

During the class, we will not be distributing loaner textbooks in order to prevent cross-transmission of the diseases between students. You may download the PDF version of the book from your confirmation message and use your tablet/laptop/smartphone during the class OR you may purchase a hard copy version. Please understand that these are the only two options feasible at this time; once the situation with COVID-19 is resolved, we may return to our original practice of using loaner textbooks during the class.

Participants should use their own learning equipment each day including, manuals, worksheets, calculators, notebooks, pens, pencils, etc. These items should not be shared with other participants.

After Training:

We recommend that you wash your hands upon leaving our facility. When you get home, we recommend that you change and wash your attire as well before getting in contact with your family members.

COVID-19 Screening Questionnaire

Coast2Coast First Aid and Aquatics Inc strive to ensure the safety of all participants and staff in the classroom during this unprecedented time. All students must complete the Screening Questions.

If you are experiencing any of the symptoms listed below, we ask that you do wear a face mask.

I recently completed a CPR and First Aid course with Coast2Coast North York location, and our presenter Ali was absolutely phenomenal. He managed to take a huge amount of critical, high-stakes information and deliver it in a way that was engaging, easy to understand, and highly practical. Instead of just reading off slides, he brought real-world experience to the classroom, using hands-on practice and clear scenarios to make sure everyone felt completely comfortable with the techniques. His teaching style was patient, encouraging, and highly interactive, which made the time fly by. I walked out of the class feeling genuinely confident in my ability to respond calmly and effectively in an emergency situation. If you need to get certified, I recommend Coast2Coast North York location. Thank you Ali!

Response from the owner:Thank you, Natalya! 🎉 We agree that Ali does an amazing job with his presentations. We're so glad you had a great experience earning your Red Cross certification in North York. We'd love to help your friends and family get certified too! – The Coast2Coast Team

She really brought a sense of calm and comfort into the class, and was fun as well! Will definitely be back for a recert in the next 3 years, thanks so much!

Response from the owner:Thank you, Madeline! 🎉 We agree, Tatiana is wonderful at bringing a sense of calm and comfort to the classroom.
