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 had a great experience completing my CPR training with Coast2Coast, and I highly recommend them. My instructor, Edward, was extremely engaging and knowledgeable throughout the entire course. He made sure everyone stayed focused and involved by having us actively practice CPR and first aid techniques with each other, rather than just listening to lectures.
Edward didn’t stay behind a desk—he moved around the classroom, checked in with everyone, and kept the energy up, which really helped with focus and learning. He answered all of our questions clearly, using great explanations and hands-on demonstrations that made everything easy to understand and remember.
Overall, this was a very effective and enjoyable training session. I would definitely recommend Coast2Coast and would gladly come back for future courses.

My time at the Coast2Coast Mississauga location was nothing but amazing.

I was receiving my Standard First Aid CPR/AED Level C certification. I have had multiple experiences with obtaining and renewing CPR certifications with other companies, including other locations and instructors within Coast2Coast, however, I can confidently say that this was the best experience I have had.

This is all due to the incredible instructor I had, Andrea. She was very thorough in her analysis, her examples resonated perfectly to real life scenarios that we would be facing and her teaching methods really aided in understanding the content and making sure you were experts by the end of the class. She is professional, engaging and really brings the content to life where you get the most out of learning all the fundamentals and facets of the course.

If you want an amazing experience like I have, I highly recommend the Mississauga location and having Andrea as your instructor.

Thank you again Andrea for going over and above and providing your expertise and knowledge. I am so grateful to learn from such an amazing instructor and person! And look forward to hopefully doing my recertification with you in the future. And to Coast2Coast management, you definitely have yourself a great one!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Louie! 🙏 We're so glad Andrea made your CPR certification experience in Mississauga the best you've had with her thoroughness and real-life examples. We look forward to seeing you at your next recertification! - The Coast2Coast Team
