Offered Classes
No other training service provider in the area offers as many classes as Edmonton First Aid. CPR and AED, first aid, special child care, and food safety classes are the most popular courses at Edmonton First Aid. All classes have flexible schedules, with evening and weekend classes available.
Stand-alone first aid and CPR and AED classes are also available. CPR and AED classes introduce students to the American Heart Association’s Basic Life Support (BLS) guidelines. The 2010 BLS guidelines focus on the updated techniques used in providing CPR and AED to victims of cardiac arrest. The action sequence of A-B-C (airway, breathing, circulation) has been updated to C-A-B after recent studies revealed that chest compressions started within 3-5 minutes after collapse have improved survival rates of victims.
Trainees with scheduling problems can choose to enrol in private classes.

Typical blood pressure medications
- Diuretics – diuretics are medication that causes our body to increase sodium and water elimination through urination. This is usually given to hypertensives who also have kidney problems. When there is too much circulating volume in the body, it raises our blood pressure.
- Beta-blockers, Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), Calcium channel blockers – these reduce cardiac workload, making the heart beat less forcefully.
