CSTF Mandatory Training (1/2 Day Practical) Reviews

Excellent study day covering all pertinent topics. Clear explanations allowing plenty of time for questions and further explanations.

Excellent venue. I paid for course A which included the practical training pertinent to Adult resus/life support. So I was very surprised when the child /paediatric practical training was included. As previously all the adult nursing resus skills were taught separately. Hence, once our booked training was completed we were permitted to leave. Unfortunately we didn't gain any experience on applying & using the defib as the defib sticky pads for electrical stimulation wouldn't adhere, hence abandoned. But we were given the theory.

The trainer was very good and helpful.

Great. More explanation assuming te audience knows nothing would help.

I think there was quite a lot of detail about immediate life support and ABCDE approach, which I think is doctor based. rather than just basic life support which would be done in the community.

The course was enjoyable

Great new learning experience helped by the face to face teaching. Good day overall.

Good course for the practical training of manual handling training and basic life support

None

Very well presented , always difficult for a trainer to decide how much time to spend on each module. Interactive elements and chance to discuss things with other health professionals is really useful to me as a sole practitioner. I would like the venue to do fresh coffee and tea for the afternoon as flasks are cold by lunchtime.
