First Responder Recertification (FR) Training Program
Ready to refresh your First Responder (FR) skills? At Coast2Coast, we provide First Responder Recertification training courses throughout Ontario, helping keep our student’s certificates valid. This advanced training has been designed to go over content you have previously learned while also incorporating newly developed life-saving techniques.
The course covers a wide range of topics from assessing patients and circulatory emergencies to hemorrhages and soft tissue trauma. In addition to this content, students will also learn how to extricate patients, deliver a baby and so much more.
Each of these skills is not only taught over lecture but also taught through scenario-based training. Students will be required to act out emergency scenes as a way to practice patient assessments, vitals, various medical emergencies, and how to care for the patient. Practicing scenarios is a key aspect of First Responder Recertification training.
