SAINT JOHN, NB, OCT 10, 2022—Since the Life Start Training’s inception in 2016, Khryspn Jensen knew there was a better way to teach people first aid that was fun, memorable, and that would result in more lives saved. She was appalled by reported cardiac arrest survival rates in Canada (was less than 10% survival for out-of-hospital heart attack victims) and made a personal commitment to do her part in helping to save more people from avoidable death. That commitment is no longer just personal, now it is the company’s mission and the reason behind every step Life Start Training takes in pursuit of elevating training standards. Pursuant to this, Life Start Training Inc is planning expansion through franchising.

This has been a decade old plus debate that has been brought up in almost every First Aid class that we teach.
Let’s first all agree that 2020 has been a year for the record books. Everywhere you look, you’ll find stories of challenges, losses, successes and adaptation to this new world.
