First Aid and CPR

Standard First Aid and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) skills are required for those who may be required to respond to emergencies while on placement. In order to meet provincial workplace WSIB standards, First Aid and CPR training must only be from one of the following recognized training providers in Ontario: St. John Ambulance, Red Cross, Perri-med or Heart & Stroke. Student’s that have completed their First Aid Training with a different WSIB provider prior to Oct. 10, 2025 will not be prevented from attending their placement so long as their certification can be verified.

Online first aid/CPR courses or online renewal courses will NOT be accepted as students are expected to have practical, hands-on knowledge. Blended delivery (online and in class) and renewal courses with approved training providers are accepted.

*Please Note: ACLS, BLS or HCP certificate meets the CPR requirement only, Standard First Aid certification is additionally required.
