Training in life-saving skills including CPR now mandatory in P.E.I. high schools

  • Starting in 2025, Prince Edward Island will require high school students to complete training in CPR and the use of automated external defibrillators, with a demonstration recently held at Colonel Gray High School.
  • The initiative was launched through the efforts of emergency doctor Harrison Carmichael and the Advanced Coronary Treatment Foundation, which partnered with school boards and secured approximately half of the required funding.
  • Teachers across 15 schools received training to deliver skills including opioid overdose response, added at teachers' request for student preparedness.
  • The program features training mannequins and AED units funded partly by community partners' $22,800 and provincial support, and Clarke said, "It doesn't take much to learn."
  • Mandatory life-saving training equips students with practical skills supporting community health and reflects positive national feedback on empowering youth to save lives.
