Bronze Medallion & Basic Workplace First Aid

Participants must be 13 by the first day of the program. Bronze Medallion challenges the candidate both mentally and physically. Judgement, knowledge, skill, and fitness – the four components of water rescue – form the basis of Bronze Medallion training. Candidates acquire the assessment and problem-solving skills needed to make good decisions in, on, and around the water. Bronze Medallion is a prerequisite for assistant lifeguard training in Bronze Cross. The Nova Scotia Department of Labour, Skills and Immigration recognizes this course. Basic Workplace First Aid is an introductory workplace approved first aid course to prepare people to provide CPR with AED in addition to responding to circulatory emergencies, respiratory emergencies and building knowledge and awareness of many other injuries and illnesses.
