Academic
Primary Care (CPR): This course teaches you the steps and techniques to handle life-threatening emergencies. You will practice eight skills to help patients who are not breathing, have no heartbeat, may have a spinal injury, may be in shock, or may have severe bleeding. You will learn how to perform CPR and continue to monitor the patient, to give every possible chance of survival while waiting for emergency medical services to arrive. Secondary Care (First Aid): Because many medical conditions are not life-threatening and emergency medical services are sometimes delayed or unavailable, this course teaches you how to provide first aid that relieves pain and reduces risk from suffering further damage. You will learn to evaluate a variety of injuries and illnesses and practice taping and splinting. Child Care: This course allows participants to learn, practice, and apply specific emergency care skills to help infants and children with medical emergencies. It is designed for those who work with children or are likely to respond to emergencies involving youth. This course is often integrated with Primary Care (CPR) and Secondary Care (First Aid) courses. CPR and AED: This course focuses on CPR training and teaching participants how to use an AED (automated external defibrillator). When government or workplace requirements specify this training, the CPR and AED course meets the need. This course is often integrated into workplace first aid programs. First aid at work: In some areas, such as Great Britain, Australia, and Canada, government regulations require better CPR and first aid training in the workplace. Workplace first aid programs designed for these areas include additional topics and skills to meet requirements while following the easy-to-learn EFR training approach. EFR Refresher – It's a good idea to refresh your CPR and First Aid skills every 24 months, and that's what the EFR refresher course is designed to do. Focusing on key skills, the course allows you to stay up to date and ready to provide help when needed.
