What Are CPR Recertification Courses?

If you have previously received certification in CPR there will come a point when you will need to be recertified. Our courses offer Red Cross certification that is valid for 3 years. Once you complete the course the certification card will be issued on the same day. It is now easier than ever to get recertified in First Aid & CPR training Toronto, through our Heart 2 Heart courses.
Standard First Aid CPR /AED (C or HCP) Recertification
This is a one-day course that is also commonly referred to as Basic Cardiac Life Support. You can take this course if your prior certification for CPR (C or HCP) was issued during the last 3 years. You’ll need to provide proof of this when you register for the course. HCP level CPR recertification is also available for healthcare providers.
The course focuses on lifesaving skills for babies, children and adults. In this course you’ll go over CPR procedures, choking, team response, using an automated external defibrillator, the proper recovery position, response preparation and the 911 emergency medical system. Additional skills are covered for healthcare providers.
CPR/AED standard First Aid (Level C or HCP) Re-Certification
This is an 8-hour course that can be done in one day and if you are a healthcare provider requiring HCP recertification the course will be one hour longer. This course examines emergencies that are life-threatening and injuries requiring first aid. During the 8 hours you’ll specifically cover the correct recovery position for a breathing yet unconscious person, the 911 Emergency Medical System, an introduction to response preparation, CPR for all ages, use of an automated external defibrillator, stroke, angina and heart attacks, choking, team response, asthma, anaphylactic shock, deadly bleeding, burns, spinal and head injuries plus much more.
Getting CPR recertified can be done quickly and efficiently in a single day. If your current certificate is about to run out, don’t put off your recertification course any longer. The time to act is now before it’s too late. No matter the reason for receiving a CPR certification, you need to stay up to date on the latest developments and any changes that may have occurred during the last 3 years.
