Surrey First Aid Training Reviews

Interesting information - more interactive tasks at the end session to keep me more alert would be appreciated. However, it was a really helpful session!

Andrew has given us our course for a few years now and we like how he manages the course. He is full of information and it's wonderful to learn from him. We look forward to booking again when it's time to renew.

Great course - lots of content - relaxed environment

Brilliant first aid course, which makes me feel a lot more confident about delivering first aid. Dance specific injuries could be a bit more on depth but the rest has left me feeling empowered going into a first aid situation

Very informative, helpful, concise. Thank you.

Unfortunately due to covid restrictions there was a lack of practical so it was difficult to concentrate. The trainer was extremely knowledgeable.

Good course which covered very wide topics. Almost too much to take in!

Trainer was lovely and supportive

Trainer (Brendan) was very good. Since everyone was already familiar with content and re-qualifying he quickly covered the essentials making sure to see all of us all individually and successfully perform. Drew out individual candidates' personal experiences (e.g. being on receiving end of being injected with an epi pen/dealing with hypothermia etc) and led discussions on these to the benefit of the whole group. Was happy to go into deeper depth on topics of interest e.g. using climber's ropes to make a stretcher instead of a tarp or bivvy bag and altitude sickness. Only criticism is that whilst the teaching was done outdoors the available ground was very benign i.e. gently sloping lawn or flat ground with a few minor tree roots - so no opportunity to practice stabilising a casualty on steep or very uneven ground.

Very good course. A section on dressings would have been useful as this has been a useful part of previous courses that I have attended, and is usually a helpful reminder when one hasn't used certain dressings over the three years.
