What is Marine First Aid?

Marine First Aid training courses are for those who work in marine environments and require first aid and CPR/AED training. These courses will cover a variety of topics ranging from head and spine injuries, airway emergencies, environmental emergencies and more!

Understanding and knowing how to perform first aid and CPR/AED skills is an important aspect of working in the marine or fishing industry. Depending on your job, there may be times where you do not have access to a doctor or hospital for a long period of time but require first aid. Our training courses will not only provide you the skills and knowledge required to assist others with various emergencies, but also ensure your confidence while doing so, keeping you and your co-workers safe.

Marine Basic First Aid

Coast2Coast offers the Canadian Red Cross Marine Basic First Aid course, which meets all the standards and requirements of Transport Canada outlined in Transport publication (TP) 13008 E. This is a comprehensive 16 hours, two day training course which allows the participant to earn a rating certificate or endorsement, Master or Chief Mate limited certification, provide first aid on board a vessel engaged on a near-costal voyage, class 2, or sheltered waters.

These life-saving skills are taught to help identify, avert and respond to medical emergency situations with proper first aid and CPR revolving around scenarios encountered by the marine/fishing industry. Keep yourself and your co-workers safe and learn Marine Basic First Aid & CPR/AED today!

I was a little worried at first of the way the training would proceed , but my trainer Maria Mcguiness was very professional and knew how to make us feel comfortable and she knew her stuff ...I sincerely would take the class again if it was only for her. The training was easy to understand and she was available to assist.

I just did my Red Cross CPR-C + AED renewal, and it was exactly what I needed. The instructor, Nida Farooque, made everything clear and didn’t just rush through. We practiced adult, child, and infant CPR multiple times until we were confident. The AED trainer was exactly like the real one. I highly recommend it to anyone in healthcare, nursing, or PSW who needs yearly renewal. Fast and professional.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Lmia! 🎉 We agree that Nida Farooque is excellent at making sure everyone gets enough hands-on practice to feel fully confident. We are glad you had such a fast and professional experience earning your Red Cross certification in Mississauga. We'd love to help your friends and family get certified too! - The Coast2Coast Team
