Medical emergencies can happen anywhere at school—during class, in the gym, or on the field. To help students respond, the BC Grade 10 Physical and Health Education curriculum now includes “basic principles for responding to emergencies, including Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) learning.”
