St. John Ambulance courses

[Guest 0T6]

Hey there,

 

I am thinking of doing the St. John Ambulance Standard First Aid + CPR Basic Rescuer course <!--EZCODE BOLD START--> <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> <!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->[/i] summer just to get it done with and not have to worry about getting it done before my 2nd year. Good idea / bad idea? Would I have get it renewed before my 4th year, as the St. John website says that the certificate's only valid for 3 years?

 

Thanks a lot!

Just an edit to the above post -- it should read that I'm thinking of doing the courses <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> this<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> summer...........

just so you know, CPR needs to be recerted every year, and First aid every two years.

i'm an instructor in both (and i'm in OT6) so i can certify you if you want

You can also wait and join the one organized during first year for students that still didn't have it yet. You also get a discount because at that time you will be a med student. Either way, you must have first aid and CPR for adult and child before you can begin second year.

Hey Akane200,

 

Sounds good. Thanks a lot for the info. Just out of curiosity -- who organizes this for the students?

[Guest Akane200]

The class council usually organizes this for the students.
