Today, we pause to remember the courage and sacrifice of those who served, so we can live in peace and freedom. 🌺

Their legacy reminds us that courage takes many forms: standing up, showing up, and helping others when it matters most.

In Ontario, more than 650 people lost their lives to opioid toxicity in just three months — that works out to seven lives every day.* 💔

That’s why overdose awareness and naloxone training are a critical part of every first aid class I teach.

First aid training is about being ready to act when it matters most.

Here are a few fun facts that might surprise you!

1. First aid has been around for centuries.
Believe it or not, the idea goes all the way back to the 11th century! The Knights Hospitaller cared for injured soldiers, you could say they were the world’s first “organized responders.”

2. CPR is actually pretty new.
The modern CPR technique wasn’t developed until the 1960s!

3. Cool water beats ice every time.
If you get a burn, skip the ice — it can damage your skin even more. Run it under cool (not cold) water for about 20 minutes instead.

4. Pressure works.
When someone’s bleeding, steady pressure alone can control blood loss in most cases until help arrives. It’s simple, but it saves lives.

5. A shock from an AED can restart the heart within seconds.
When used quickly after cardiac arrest, AEDs can boost survival rates by up to 70%. That’s why having one nearby truly saves lives!

After more than 20 years of teaching First Aid, it is important to me that my clients are trained properly, so that if and when an emergency hits, they feel confident and prepared that they know what to do.

It is important to me that my teaching isn't about memorizing steps, it's hands-on learning in a supportive way so you actually remember what to do when it matters most. 🥺
