FIRST AID & CPR COURSES
Our Goal
ViviMed Integrated Health is committed to building a safe and healthy community for Toronto and the GTA. Time is the most important factor in saving a life and reducing injury. Therefore, the quicker we respond to the emergency the better the outcome. Above all, we create a stronger community when more of our neighbours are ready and able to recognize and respond to emergencies. Our initiative is to promote a safe, connected and healthier community through first aid and CPR training.
FIRST AID & CPR COURSES
Key areas of Priority:
- Injury Prevention: Prevent and reduce injuries involving body contact (football, hockey), motorized vehicles, alcohol and other drugs, and uncontrolled environments (hiking, camping).
- Trauma Assist: Reduce the time needed to respond to emergencies by learning the proper technique, skills, and knowledge, which will allow you to approach the scene with more confidence.
- Community Awareness: We increase positive perceptions of safety in homes, schools, and workplaces, becoming aware of the risk of injury associated with our daily activities. It allows us to create a safe environment through education and training.
The Vision is to build a Stronger Community:
Advance the health and safety of our community by getting to know your neighbours. Neighbours that know each other are more likely to look after one another. In other words, a healthy neighbourhood is one where people participate and interact in community life. Building strong communities is central to the vision of ViviMed Integrated Health. Therefore, we are committed to our goal of helping to build a safe and healthy community for all of Toronto and the GTA.
