First Aid, CPR & BLS for Algonquin College Students and Healthcare Workers

Our Robertson Road location is a short drive from Algonquin College’s Woodroffe campus and Queensway Carleton Hospital. Many Algonquin programs require current certification before clinical placements or co-ops, especially in nursing, paramedic, personal support worker, early childhood education, and fitness programs. Hospital, clinic, and long-term care staff need to keep their certification current too. Common requirements include:

• Basic Life Support (BLS) for nursing, paramedic, and other healthcare programs and roles
• Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR Level C for placements, childcare, coaching, and fitness roles
• Recertification courses to keep your certification current before placements or renewals

Always check your program’s or employer’s requirements for the exact course level you need.
