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 recently completed the Basic Life Support (BLS) course and had a great experience. The instructor Dimitrih Lavfleur was knowledgeable, clear, and made the session very engaging. The hands-on practice was especially helpful in building confidence with CPR and AED use. The course was well-organized and very relevant for healthcare professionals. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality BLS training.

I recently completed my Standard First Aid & CPR training in Richmond Hill, and I had an amazing experience.

A big thank you to our instructor, Edward. He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and engaging throughout the session. He explained everything clearly, made the training interactive, and ensured everyone felt confident practicing the skills.
I walked away with not only valuable life-saving knowledge, but also the confidence to actually apply it in real situations. It was a very hands-on and practical learning experience, and I genuinely learned a lot of new skills. Most recommended!!

Instructor was very professional and taught us the course very well. I like the course and would recommend anyone to go for it. Don’t go for the extras that they ask you when you pay for cpr as it’s not mandatory. If you want to learn how to save a life for a family member in emergencies, go for it.

I honestly didn’t expect a CPR class to be this enjoyable! Ashraf made the whole experience easy to follow, engaging, and even funny at times. The way he explained things was clear and practical, which really helped build confidence instead of stress.

Time flew by, and I actually had fun while learning something so important. Highly recommend this class—especially with Ashraf as the instructor!
