Course Reviews

Emily, Solihull
I would like to tell you how much I enjoyed the course. Glen was an exceptional teacher. He made us all feel comfortable and supported us as well as preparing us for the assessments. I felt confident in his ability and he seemed very knowledgeable answering all of our many questions. I was very pleasantly surprised how interesting this course was. Glen made the course engaging, his descriptions were clear, his feedback was always constructive and he was always very positive and cheerful even at 9pm on a Monday. I will be recommending this course to others and would like you to pass on my thanks to Glen. He is truly an asset to your company.

Dave,
Well what to say..... Thanks to First Response my training detected a broken wrist my 5 year old daughter had today. The injury happened at school all the teachers/first aiders failed to spot it. The injury happened 3 hours before I collected her no response from anyone at school but I did what I was taught by Brian and spotted the signs did a sweep only took 10 seconds. Poor girl was at school for 3 hrs with a fracture. 10 seconds with me and my training had her in A&E 20 minutes later. Cast on... Thank you for teaching me guys.

The First Response (First Aid) trainer's friendly and efficient style kept everyone's attention throughout the day. His simple but still detailed demonstrations brought the best out in everyone.

I took part in your one-day first aid at work course today at the golf club Aldridge, and I would just like to say that I have done many first aid courses in my time but the one I did today was absolutely fantastic!! The two gents that hosted the course were inspirational and I can promise you we will recommend your company to everyone that walks through our door! I feel for the first time ever, after a course that I would be confident in doing all I could in saving someone's life. I walked out wishing I did the 3-day course, Thank you again and see you in 3 years!!

The trainer and resources were brilliant. Brian made everything very clear and I felt comfortable asking about things I was unsure about.

A huge thank you for arranging the first aid course for the bank. We had a wonderful time learning Emergency First Aid and we all passed. The trainer was interactive, passionate and fun. It was a great way of learning. Lunch was great too, and there was plenty of tea and coffee.
