Program Intent:

Western Canada Fire & First Aid's health care provider CPR and AED training courses are made possible through the support of the HEART & STROKE FOUNDATION of Alberta, Northwest Territories and Nunavut and taught to meet the North American guidelines established by the HEART & STROKE FOUNDATION of Canada and the American Heart Association. It is recommended that annual re-training in CPR is preformed to ensure the quality of skills are retained. The intent of the program is to provide the skills necessary to maintain basic life support for a casualty who is both breathless and pulse-less. Western Canada Fire & First Aid offers the health care provider CPR and AED certificate as well as the health care provider CPR and AED recertification.
