Our theory program consists of videos, pictures and interactive modules to help you process the information and understand the material at a time that is convenient for you. After completing the online portion, you will attend your in-class portion for hands-on practice.

I’ve taken several CPR courses at different institutions, but this was by far the best experience yet. The instructor Kia was incredibly knowledgeable and kept us fully engaged the entire time. Kia's ability to demonstrate techniques in a clear, easy-to-understand way made a huge difference. I left the class feeling truly confident that I could handle a real-world emergency. If you're looking for high-quality training that actually prepares you, I highly recommend this course.

I recently completed a BLS class with Andrea and it was by far one of the best BLS courses I've taken. Andrea explained everything clearly, made the material easy to understand and created a really supportive learning environment.

I'll be back next year and hopefully able to ask her to train my team as well.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Maitor! We’re thrilled Andrea made the BLS class clear, hands-on, and supportive. We’ve passed your compliments along to her and truly appreciate your recommendation. We look forward to training your team next year—please reach out when you’re ready to schedule.

Video Testimonial Compilation

Coast2Coast First Aid & Aquatics is committed to providing programs that benefit the community, which is why we ensure that every individual who participates in our classes and courses in Vaughan leaves with essential life-saving skills to prepare them for potential emergencies they may encounter. Although we sincerely hope our customers never experience such emergencies, we are prepared to respond promptly and appropriately to any situation. Our facilities across Ontario are equipped with state-of-the-art First Aid and CPR equipment and supplies. Enroll in one of our Vaughan First Aid & CPR/AED Canadian Red Cross programs or consult us for assistance in choosing the course that suits you and your specific circumstances.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Coast2Coast, we strive to teach our communities life-saving skills as emergencies happen on a daily basis. We believe it is important to provide accessible training to all which is why many of our first aid and CPR/AED training courses are offered in the Online Blended training format.

The following courses may be registered for and completed in the online blended format: CPR/AED Level A, CPR/AED Level C, Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C, Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C and Marine Basic First Aid. Each of these courses covers very important life-saving skills which can be used to help someone in need whether it is a family member or a bystander on your way to work.

With the online blended format, complete half of your first aid and CPR/AED training online, then attend an in-class session to practice hands-on skills. Ideal for those with hectic schedules, completing the online component in your own time, then attend an in-class session for a shorter period of time.

All Canadian Red Cross certificates are valid for three years besides Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP). It is important to keep your certificate up-to-date, especially if your workplace or school program requires it. There is a chance that your employer may request that you renew your certificate earlier than the expiration date, and this is normal.

Some employers require their employees to keep their training as up-to-date as possible. After completing a First Aid and CPR/AED training course, people will lose the skills they have learned unless they practice them often. This is why it is important to recertify.

If you wish to recertify your First Aid and CPR/AED with Coast2Coast, you will need to ensure your current certificate is still valid and from the Canadian Red Cross. CPR/AED Level C may be recertified over and over, but for Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C, you must alternate between a full course and a Recertification course.

At Coast2Coast, we understand that those who require Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) training likely have busy schedules. With this in mind, we offer the Basic Life Support course at three different times during the day (schedule varies by month and location): morning, afternoon and evening.

It is important that our healthcare professionals are able to get the training they require, which is why we have recently added afternoon courses to our monthly schedules. Since Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) is only a four-hour training, we are able to provide this course often.

Learn various, intense skills such as high-performance CPR, how to handle trauma or opioid overdose and more! Besides life-saving skills, students will also learn how to work in a fast-paced environment as a team.

Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) certificates are valid for one year, meaning you must recertify your training annually. Keep your skills up-to-date and help save lives of people in your community.

If you are interested in getting your employees certified in First Aid and CPR/AED, private/group training may be a great option for you! At Coast2Coast, we provide training for groups of eight participants or more. Choose a date and training location (this could be your workplace or one of our facilities)!

Once it is set up, we will send one of our experienced Canadian Red Cross instructors to your location of choice with all necessary training equipment. Learn First Aid and CPR/AED theory and complete hands-on life-saving skills. After completing training, your employees are guaranteed to feel confident in their skills.

Private/group First Aid and CPR/AED training not only certifies multiple employees at once, but it also provides you with great discounts and easy billing! After speaking with a private training coordinator at Coast2Coast, you will receive a quote based on the number of students you wish to certify. At Coast2Coast, we can guarantee you the best possible price!

An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is an electronic device which is used to assist someone who has experienced sudden cardiac arrest. Luckily, AEDs are not difficult to use, but do require to be used correctly to be most effective.

At Coast2Coast, we include AED training in all of our First Aid and CPR training courses. This electronic device can make the difference between life and death which is so important to understand. Learning how to use an AED is simple. During your First Aid and CPR/AED training, you will practice using a couple different types of AEDs. Some AEDs are more basic and only have written instructions whereas a more advanced one may have verbal instructions.

Since AEDs are so effective, Ontario has installed them into public location such as public transit, office buildings, schools and more. If you are interested in purchasing an AED, please contact our sales department (sales@c2cfirstaidaquatics.com).

It is important to prepare yourself for any emergency situation which is why we always recommend the citizens of Vaughan enrol in a First Aid and CPR/AED training course.

Before April 2019, CPR-HCP had the option to include first aid training in the course, making it simple to complete all necessary training requirements for a job or school program at once. Since then, CPR-HCP has transformed into Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) which is now a separate four-hour training from our First Aid training courses.

At Coast2Coast, we do not offer First Aid training with Basic Life Support training. Instead, students are required to register for each course separately. If you wish to register for First Aid and Basic Life Support training with us at Coast2Coast, we will provide you a bundle discount deal, bringing your Basic Life Support course down from $64.99+HST to $39.99+HST.

We understand the importance of completing both training courses by certain deadlines which is why we offer each course as often as possible in Vaughan. Check our website for upcoming course dates or call our head office at 866-291-9121.
