Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) Courses

Our Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) training courses are specifically designed for healthcare professionals who work with pediatric patients. This training course is built off of the skills learned in Basic Life Support (BLS) or Pediatric Emergency Assessment, Recognition and Stabilization (PEARS) training.

Students will learn a variety of life-saving skills in a Pediatric Advanced Life Support course such as high-quality CPR, arrhythmias, cardiopulmonary arrest and more. Expect to practice high-intensity cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) as a team to save lives and care for ill or injured children.

Those who require Pediatric Advanced Life Support training include nurses, physicians, paramedics and others who work in a pediatric care setting. Be sure to register today and earn your PALS certificate and save lives!

Hi everyone, I had a splendid experience obtaining my First Aid/CPR certification through Coast2Coast. The training materials and instruction were excellent; everything had been mentioned, and all videos are available to follow along. I was helped by Claudine, who provided valuable assistance in adjusting the location and timing of my course. A special thanks and appreciation to coach Kianoosh at the Unionville location who displayed significant expertise. He was effective in explaining concepts through real-life examples and incorporated principles from the laws of physics. He consistently assessed our engagement and commitment to the course through questions. Furthermore, he emphasized the significant impact of this course, noting its potential to not only save an individual's life but also to positively influence their entire family. I also appreciate how wonderfully he conveyed the essence and integrity necessary for being a First Aider.I am glad I took this course from Coast2Coast and highly recommend it to others. Thanks

This my second time taking the Intermediate CPR and First Aid course with the Red Cross, I had Dr.Tatiana as my lecturer both times; I have to say she did an amazing job, and for a lecture this long, I wasn't bored even for the refresher! I feel confident as a first aider.

First Aid & CPR/AED Training

Along with Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) training, Coast2Coast also offers First Aid and CPR/AED training courses that follow the Canadian Red Cross guidelines. Our two first aid training courses are Basic/Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C as well as Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C. Each of these courses are offered in the Traditional All In-Class format or the Online Blended format.

Each of our First Aid and CPR/AED courses are WSIB approved and taught by one of our highly trained Canadian Red Cross instructors. Practice hands-on skills such as wound care, CPR, bandaging and more with top-notch equipment, guaranteed to make you feel confident in your life-saving skills.

Currently, our First Aid and Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) courses are held separately as of April 2019. First aid training will cover basic to advanced skills as well as CPR, AED and choking for adults, children and infants. Our Basic Life Support course will have some overlap of skills, but will primarily focus on high-intensity CPR, BVM, how to work in a fast-paced environment with a team and more.

First Aid + BLS Bundle

Many students who require Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) training also require first aid training. If you require both trainings for your school program or workplace, you may be eligible for our BLS bundle discount!

To take advantage of the bundle discount, you must register for two separate courses:

  1. Basic/Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C OR Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C
  2. Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP)

This discount will be applied to the Basic Life Support registration, reducing the price to $39.99+HST per person.
