Primary Care: A non-diving certification which teaches you the basic first aid and cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This program has no minimum age requirements so is ideal for all family members. Additional skills include an orientation to using an “automated external defibrillator”, providing oxygen and dealing with choking adults.

The secondary care module shows you how to assess illnesses, injuries and splint wounds.  In 1 day, become a competent Emergency First Responder.

Care for Children: The Emergency First Response Care for Children course is designed to help you deal with emergencies involving infants and babies.
