About This Course

What This Course Covers

The Cardiac Crash Seminar is a short, scenario-based learning experience designed to build real-world awareness and the confidence to respond when someone collapses from cardiac arrest.

Participants are guided through a realistic cardiac arrest scenario — working as a team to recognize the emergency, call for help, start CPR, and use an AED. The focus is on doing, not just watching.

This is not a certification course. It's designed for groups who want practical readiness without the time commitment of a full CPR course — and for organizations that want to build a culture of preparedness.

Please note: The Cardiac Crash Seminar is a skills-based awareness experience and does not result in a Heart & Stroke Canada certification. If your team requires official certification, see our Heartsaver® CPR AED or BLS courses.
