Due to budgetary constraints and our heavy workload, RCUH will be restricting First Aid/CPR/AED training to only RCUH Staff based on the following priorities:

 

1. RCUH Supervisory staff (Field jobs will have priority over office types).

2. RCUH non-supervisory staff in jobs that require First Aid/CPR or are located in remote locations.

3. RCUH non-supervisory staff in jobs that do not require First Aid/CPR.

4. RCUH registered volunteer.

5. Non-RCUH staff (fees to cover expenses may be charged)
