What is an MFR?
St. John Ambulance plays a vital role in critical areas of emergency preparedness and response across Canada. Our Medical First Responders (MFRs) provide lifesaving first aid and help reduce the risk of further injury or illness at public events and gatherings.
Whether at a sporting match, concert, community event, or more, our MFRs provide advanced first aid care, at no cost. Without the assistance of our MFRs, many community-based organizations would not be able to offer first aid coverage at public events.
We are so proud of these volunteers, who arrive at every event ready to help their communities.
