Beginnings

Frontline First-Aid & CPR Inc. grew out of the experience and desire of its founder John Lassaline to use his knowledge and skills to train others in the critical areas of first-aid and CPR.

Combining his years of both being a paramedic in pre-hospital emergency care and teaching courses in the area gave him a perspective on how important it is to know and be able to practice these potentially life-saving skills.

This led him to found Frontline First-Aid & CPR Inc. to serve Southwestern Ontario and beyond with their commitment to providing the very best in the field of First-Aid and CPR and related medical programs and consulting.
