First Aid Course for HAVEN Volunteers

This course is being provided especially for HAVEN volunteers who want to help out in the First Aid Station. Haven volunteers will be given priority, however, this course will be open to others either attending HAVEN or are part of the BDSM scene.

NOTE: As an independent instructor, James can offer this course to us at a discounted cost of $75 instead of the regular cost of $115! It’s even cheaper than the re-certification, which is $90.

Course type: Standard First Aid and CPR-A
Dates: July 24 and 25, 2010
Time: 8:30am – 4:30pm (usually wraps up earlier on Sunday)
Location: 5 Corvus Court
Cost: $75/person

Standard First Aid is the most common level of First Aid taken by Canadians for work and home. It covers what to do in case of an emergency, how to deal with soft-tissue injuries, breaks and sprains, head injuries, choking, medical emergencies, burns, and more. Level A CPR trains participants to rescue adult casualties.

NOTE: This course does not cover child or infant resuscitation.

This course will meet first aid requirements of most work places that do not normally serve children and babies.

Participants will receive a Student Reference guide that they may keep.


Registration

All participants must pre-register and pre-pay. All registrations and payments are due by noon, July 19th. Registrations can be sent to james.oldrich@gmail.com and payment arrangements will be made at that time. Anyone arriving the day of the course who has not registered (and received a confirmation of payment) will be sent away.

Class Size

The class is limited to a maximum of 18 participants. Preference will be given to those volunteering for HAVEN. First paid, first served.

Physical Requirements

This course does require participants to demonstrate the skills they have learned which will require moving around and sitting/kneeling on the floor. If you have concerns about your ability to meet these requirements, please raise them either at the time of registration or at the start of the course. In many cases accommodation can be made.

The location of the course does have stairs between the bathrooms and the majority of the classrooms. If this will be a limitation/concern for you, please indicate that at the time of registration so some accommodation can be worked out (ie. Ensuring a ground-floor classroom).

Attendance

Attendance of both days, all day is required to receive certification. All participants are expected to demonstrate knowledge and learning through hands-on practice and a final written exam. Participants who are unable to attend both days will not receive certification and will be eligible for partial refund only in exceptional circumstances.

Refund Policy

Cancellations up to the deadline for registration will be refunded 100%.

Cancellations after the deadline for registration, and up to 48 hours before the start of the course will be refunded at 90%.

Cancellations between 48 hours and the start of the course will be refunded at 50%.

Cancellations after the start of the course and no-shows will be ineligible for refund.

Another vendor confirmed!

I’m ecstatic to let everyone know that we’ve added another vendor to our Vendor’s Fair!

A brand new Ottawa-based business supplying the Canadian market with their jewel-died hemp rope. I met with the proprietor a couple days ago and was given a lovely length of amethyst rope wrapped in a “furoshiki” tote. Very chic! Looking forward to playing with it for the very first time – like tying someone up at TEASE :)

Check the vendors’ page often, because more vendors have shown some interest.

If you wish to vend at this event, please email haven.akr@gmail.com.

From the beginning …

After months of banging her head against close-minded walls, LadyPearl has venue. Becoming ever-increasingly aroused by idea of HAVEN. People already buzzing, word is out. Need volunteers. Menu ready, but feel as though forgettng something. Did I price Kiwis? Will they be in season? LadyPearl wants Blog entry. My mind isn’t ready for Blog. She’s gone insane, needs to relax. If you kink it, they will come. Already have sponsors, and one confirmed on registration page. So far going great all around. Mind keeps returning to picture of Friday, openning night of HAVEN, and melting marshmallow goo on pair of boobs. Note to self…need to find nice pair of boobs. Oh, and find price of peanut butter cups. Boobs and cups. HAVEN rocks, over and out…
