What happens when you get First Aid instructors from Timmins, Sault Ste. Marie, and North Bay all in the same room?

A whole lot of learning — and a whole lot of laughs!
We spent last week upgrading our Medical First Responder training together, and it was an amazing experience. Huge thanks to our instructors Sara and Jerry for keeping us challenged, supported, and maybe even encouraging a bit of silliness… like our robot dance in neck braces. 🤖🤣
Training days like these remind us why we love what we do. ❤️
