COVID-19 Protocols:

A couple of things to put your mind at ease as you start to come back into the classroom setting:

LIFEGUARD COURSES:

Cleaning protocols have been increased
Equipment will be individualized as much as possible (mannequins, AED trainers, etc.)
Due to the nature of the Lifeguarding courses, there will be minimal contact required with other participants.
- For Lifeguard/Lifesaving procedures (Spinals, Unresponsive, etc) we will be using submersible mannequins where possible
- For physical standards required to be done on another person we will be teaching protocols to minimize risk - We will be switching to mannequins as soon as we are on the pool deck
All instructors are trained in updated COVID protocols

FIRST AID COURSES:

You will be set up with your own personal learning station (2m distance from the other stations)
Cleaning protocols have been increased
Equipment will not be shared amongst participants
Any skills involving partner work will be minimized, but when that is not possible, masks and gloves will be required to be worn.

Recertification Courses

CPR Level C/AED Recert

The Canadian Red Cross CPR Level C Recertification Course is designed for individuals seeking to renew their CPR Level C and AED certification. This one-day, evaluation-based course focuses on reinforcing essential life-saving skills to ensure participants are prepared to respond effectively in emergency situations. The course covers key topics such as performing high-quality chest compressions, providing effective rescue breaths, and using an AED in cases of cardiac arrest. Participants will be assessed on their ability to demonstrate critical skills and perform necessary interventions. To be eligible for recertification, participants must have a current certification from a recognized agency. This course is for recertification purposes only, with no formal instruction provided. Upon successful completion, participants will receive a renewed certification valid for three years.

Recognized Organizations for First Aid include: Canadian Red Cross, Lifesaving Society, Canadian Heart & Stroke Foundation, St. John Ambulance, Canadian Ski Patrol

Prerequisites: CPR C from an approved agency (cannot be expired) (see course description)
