This course remains one
of our most popular and
has been reviewed in
National Magazines and
publications with
excellent write ups. The
training is not an
indoor based PowerPoint
session, it is highly
practical and takes
place in relaxed
atmosphere - we
encourage questions.
For every topic you will
be taught the basic
principle with a
'simple' casualty and
once you understand your
aims and objects the
sessions develop until
you can successfully
react to a casualty in
any position, state of
responsiveness and
location. The key to the popularity of this course is its logical progress and number of exercises and simulations which confirm every teaching point again and again without feeling repetitive. During this course there are times when you will experience the adrenaline rush of a real emergency and understand both the medical and practical challenges of handling an incident - this will build your competence AND confidence more than ever. We understand that our students will need to rely on their skills in the future so we ensure that you have plenty of opportunity to practice everything that you have been taught in actual outdoor environments and realistic situations. Our training team consist of medics from rescue and military backgrounds and they will encourage you to think for yourselves as you might have to on the day - outdoor equipment is on hand for you to use and abuse as you need. Above all our team are welcoming, approachable and lots of fun - whether this is you first or 100th course you will learn a great deal and have a good time. As you can see from our price we are not about churning out package courses to simply make a buck - we are passionate about helping you learn and improve your skills. |
