Toronto First Aid provides customers with the opportunity to register for a variety of stand-alone cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated external defibrillator (AED) courses. We proudly feature these courses at the lowest prices. These courses are designed for customers that only need CPR training and do not need any first aid certification. Customers have the option of selecting from 3 different workplace approved CPR levels. These levels are CPR level “A”, “C” and “HCP” (also known as CPR level “C” for health care providers). This page will outline the available CPR training and give a brief outline of these courses which are offered in Toronto.
CPR level “A”
CPR level “A” is the simplest, quickest and most fundamental CPR course. It is commonly referred to as basic CPR training. This training course focuses on fundamental CPR which includes CPR for adult victims only. Candidates will also learn basic techniques on how to recognize and manage patients with breathing difficulties such as choking (referred to as mild and complete obstructions). Individuals will additionally cover issues such as contacting 911 and receive a basic understanding of the legal repercussions of performing CPR. Typical candidates that enrol into this course work in the service industry primarily with adults.
