First Aid Training Mandate for Ontario Child Care Workers

Starting August 31, 2015, Ontario mandates that all child care workers must possess certification in standard first aid, including training for child and infant CPR. The specified training level adheres to the standards set by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board and complies with the stipulations of the new regulation.

This ensures that child care workers are equipped with the essential skills to provide immediate and effective first aid and CPR to children and infants, aligning with the province's commitment to enhancing the safety and well-being of children under professional care.
