About the Client

Avalon Gardens is a retirement living community located in Langley, British Columbia, dedicated to providing a safe, supportive, and comfortable environment for its residents. Maintaining current workplace first aid certifications is an important part of ensuring employee readiness and responding effectively to workplace emergencies.

To keep staff certified while minimizing operational disruption, Avalon Gardens partnered with Clear Work.

The Challenge
What the organization was facing

Avalon Gardens needed to certify 12 employees in WorkSafeBC Intermediate First Aid while ensuring uninterrupted resident care. An off-site training centre would have meant:

  • More travel time and reduced staff availability during shifts.
  • More complex scheduling and administrative coordination.
  • Greater disruption to daily operations and resident care.

The organization wanted training that kept employees at their workplace and minimized time away from their responsibilities.

Our Solution

Employees completed the required online theory modules at their own pace before the practical day, reducing time away from work. Our certified instructor, Liz, then travelled to Avalon Gardens in Langley to deliver the hands-on practical portion of the course.

Participants completed the required practical evaluations to demonstrate competency. Upon completing both components, all participants received their WorkSafeBC-recognized Intermediate First Aid certification.

What was included:

The training program included:

  • Blended online learning and instructor-led practical instruction.
  • CPR, AED, patient assessment and airway management.
  • Bleeding control techniques, medical and trauma response, and hands-on emergency scenarios.
  • Practical skills evaluations and certification.
The Results
What we delivered
All 12 employees successfully completed Intermediate First Aid training.
No employee travel to an external training centre was required.
Practical instruction was delivered directly at the workplace
Blended learning reduced time away from daily responsibilities
Training was scheduled around operational needs.
WorkSafeBC certification requirements were fully met.
