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.

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).

Whether taking a day-hike, trekking multiple days along the Continental Divide, or working in an isolated area, the distance to medical help in a wilderness setting changes how we approach first aid. Offered at three levels, the Wilderness First Aid Course prepares participants to help an injured or ill person in an isolated area. Wilderness First Aid does not replace survival training.
