Our Services

Every minute counts in a crisis. And being able to take immediate action can save lives. In a family, community or workplace emergency - when someone knows First Aid, a crisis can be averted in the critical minutes it takes medical help to arrive. As a humanitarian organization we understand how important it is that every home, community and workplace in Trinidad & Tobago has someone trained in First Aid.

For over 100 years, the Red Cross has been a world leader in establishing First Aid training standards and in developing procedures and guidelines. Drawing on our extensive experience we have helped shape the world’s understanding of, and approach to, First Aid and are considered a major provider of First Aid globally. 

Our training meets the standards of the International Consensus on CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC) Science; and the International Committee on Resuscitation.

  • The TTRCS acknowledges how crucial every second is during an emergency and understands the importance of providing the public with basic First Aid and CPR training as it can mean the difference between life and death. The goal of the First Aid training is to train civilians to respond quickly and correctly in appropriate situations.

  • Wilderness and Remote First Aid involves the assessment of, and treatment given to, an injured or ill person in a remote environment such as the forest or out at sea - in the absence of a healthcare professional and rapid emergency transport to such care.

    NB: The wilderness first aid training class is currently still under development and is not yet offered to the public as a large number of persons are required to hold each class. Currently the training is only offered to corporations but persons can still use the contact numbers for further information.
