Occupational Lvl 1 first aid? anyone have theirs/taken it? any idea on places that offer it and how long/how much does it cost? |
i got mine but probably should renew it by now, lol |
I don't know about level 1 but the people at my work do level 3 and its like a 2 week course if you do it fulltime, and it's good for 2 years. I think you can do it at places like st johns ambulance and others. |
basic level 1 is a 1day course that costs $100 or so. I got my OFA level 2 from Valley first aid in Langley. I have been to st johns before and I didn't like the clases. |
level 3 is paramedic is it not? |
level one is one day. easy, and pretty borring. how to put a bandaid on... or call 911 if they need anything more then that. I found it lame. but it was paid by work, and got the day off work, so can't complain. |
level 1 is simple, costs about $100 like said above . about 8 hr course.. which really is only like a few hours worth of shit u need to know |
In Vancouver, I took the course offered by Trama Tec in Yaletown and renewed it a few times are Care on Commercial drive and 14th ave. I've had my level 2 for almost 8 years now. Level one is 8 hours and goes over vary basic first aid. If the work place has 50 employees or less, then level 1 is fine. Anymore than that, and you need level 2, is 5 days worth of classes and practical. Level 3 is for people who work in the wilderness or is a paramedic. Level three you learn everything in level 2 and how to use a spine board and neck brace. |
nice, i thought it might be more expensive |

I did mine at ST. johns first aid by brentwood. you have to check out there schedule its an 8 hour course with like 45 mins of breaks and it cost $85.00 i think my work paid for it but thats how much i believe it was |
the L1 course is worth it for anyone IMO, it could help save your own family members life or even your own. cant put a price on that. |

I'm the last guy they call for emergency's at work, and when it comes time to renewing my Level 2, I've forgotten quite a lot of it. And of course, every few years, they change some of the procedures. It is quite useful to renew the certificate every 2 years. |
st. johns is good... i got my level 3 w/ cpr 'c' and aed protocol... |
i did my st johns standard level 1 first aid thru the military. It was a good full day of boringness. |
ive been thru lv2 5 or 6 times now. i learn something new everytime. |
just for anyone looking to do first aid courses, i did my lvl 1 today at Valley first aid in langley, excellent course and excellent instructors, very good stuff even if u need to pay for it yourself, it was $85 |
