Research has proven that a safe workplace improves the bottom line. St. John Ambulance is Canada's leader in first aid training and products. With state-of-the-art teaching aids and effective classroom instructors, we offer the highest quality in first aid, CPR and health-promotion training. Our courses meet or exceed provincial (territorial) and federal government regulations. And that's not all! By choosing St. John Ambulance programs, you are also giving back to your community by supporting volunteers who deliver programs in community service.
The St. John Ambulance system of first aid training is designed with the needs of the workplace in mind. The modular concept is simple:
- Emergency Scene Management
- Shock, Unconsciousness and Fainting
- Choking (Adult)
- Cardiovascular Emergencies and One-Rescuer CPR (Adult casualty)
- Severe Bleeding
There are lifesaving first aid skills that every student should know and these form the core lessons, in both the Emergency and Standard Level First Aid courses. Your group, together with a St. John Ambulance coordinator, can then select elective lessons, to complement the core lessons, and to customize the training to the specific workplace environment.
