Mississauga Standard First Aid with Basic Life Support (BLS) & AED Training
HCP Basic Life Support Training
Mississauga’s healthcare community is one of the busiest in the province, and professionals working in hospitals, clinics, rehabilitation centres, and emergency services require certification they can rely on. Healthcare and emergency responders play a vital role in saving lives, and preparation makes all the difference. The Mississauga Standard First Aid with Basic Life Support (formerly HCP) and AED course is designed for professionals working in hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, and prehospital settings such as fire and EMS.
This program combines Standard First Aid with Basic Life Support (BLS) and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) training based on the latest Canadian Red Cross standards. Through scenario-based instruction and hands-on practice, you’ll develop the confidence and skills needed to respond effectively in high-pressure situations where seconds matter.
