Intermediate Workplace First Aid and CPR

Upcoming Courses

Overview

Intermediate Workplace First Aid with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a comprehensive two-day program to deal with workplace injuries and medical emergencies, meet legislative requirements and prepare for injuries in and outside the home.  Intermediate First Aid training is appropriate for individuals and workplaces that have ready access to Emergency Medical Services (EMS).  Where medical services may realistically be delayed more than 30 minutes, Wilderness First Aid is more appropriate.

The First Aid programs taught by Arctic Response meet or exceed national, territorial and provincial standards.

Important Note: Intermediate First Aid and CPR training meets national, territorial and provincial standards. Intermediate First Aid with CPR has been approved by the WSCC for NWT and NU to satisfy the January 1, 2021 requirements for the Intermediate First Aid Attendant.
