Confidence and competence for real workplace emergencies

Emergency Edge First Aid (EEFA) provides workplace first aid certification and occupational first aid (OFA) training designed for real work environments across British Columbia. Courses are delivered through the Canadian Red Cross and align with current workplace first aid standards, ensuring your team meets regulatory requirements while building practical, job-ready skills.

Our training focuses on hands-on, scenario-based learning that prepares participants to recognize emergencies, take action, and provide effective care on site. Whether you’re certifying new staff or maintaining workplace compliance, courses are structured to meet both legislative expectations and the realities of your industry.

EEFA operates using a mobile training model, delivering on-site workplace training for businesses as well as public courses hosted in community venues. We serve the Okanagan, Kootenays, and surrounding regions, with flexible delivery options designed to improve access for rural, remote, and seasonal workforces.

Emergency First Aid with CPR-C/AED is a one-day course designed to provide the essential skills needed to respond to common workplace emergencies. Delivered through the Canadian Red Cross, this course meets current workplace first aid requirements and provides recognized certification for individuals and employers across British Columbia.
 

Participants learn how to recognize and respond to emergencies including choking, severe bleeding, and sudden cardiac arrest, using the Check–Call–Care approach to guide decision-making and action. CPR-C and AED training is included, covering adult, child, and baby resuscitation skills.

Training is hands-on and scenario-based, focusing on practical application in real work environments rather than passive learning. This course is suitable for low-risk workplaces or as a foundational certification for individuals seeking workplace compliance.

EEFA offers this course through on-site workplace delivery and public courses hosted in community venues across the Okanagan and Kootenays, making training accessible for both businesses and individuals.
