Emergency First Aid (EFA) courses provide instruction on how to handle an emergency in the first few minutes before an ambulance arrives. Most provinces require this level of first aid for workplaces of less than 5 workers on a shift. Each course covers topics such as managing an emergency, CPR, severe bleeding and burns, and more. Courses are 1 day.
The MFR/EMR programs expand on the Standard First Aid programs offered by St. John Ambulance and cover advanced patient diagnostics, moving and transporting patients, oxygen administration, spinal immobilisation, and much more. Offered over 5-days (MFR) or 10-days (EMR), the course meets provincial requirements for each designation (where applicable).
First Aid usually focuses on physical injury and illness; but when there is a mental health emergency most are not prepared to help. The mental health courses offered by St. John Ambulance, in partnership with the Mental Health Commission of Canada, help participants recognize and assist people who are experiencing a mental health emergency.
