Good foundation for Pre-Hospital Care, and suitable for all levels. Would recommend reading the manual early (as it’s deep), but you will get the best practical experience, with really good simulation. Thank you

Excellent course with good facilities. Skills stations good, and scenarios allow consolidating theory to practise. Staff knowledgable and approachable. Would recommend this course for anyone wanting to work in the prehospital environment, or for refreshing skills.
Student 1 –
Each individual lesson was interesting and delivered very well. Lots of new interesting things were taught and I feel that I’ve learned a lot.
Student 2 – Sept 16th –
Head injury lecture was very useful in management techniques and learning symptom progression from the point of impact. Well run with excellent staff and good learning opportunities.
Student 3 – Sept 16th –
The practical scenarios were exceptional, the clinical educators ensured the scenarios were realistic which made them interesting. Providing a buffet was also very much appreciated .
Student 4 – Sept 16th –
Good opportunity to practice airway and clinical skills i.e surgical airway. Good amount of practical simulation balanced with the theory aspect.
Student 5 – Sept 16th –
Scenario practice was really useful to practice the skills learnt throughout the day in a realistic scenario. Really enjoyed the course, was good to refresh my learning on aspects and learn new skills as well as gain new knowledge. Was well taught and the instructors were clear and informative.
Student 6 – Sept 16th –
Enjoyable course with good instructors.
Student 7 – Sept 16th –
Great that the course was not run in a didactic manner – allowed room for individual development. Approachable faculty!
The Joining Instructions time was different to course timetable, more clarity would be useful.
Student 8 – Sept 16th –
Primary survey lesson was good to go through the A-E assessment and show how each one is applied. The course was well explained and I have taken a lot away from it. I will now be more systematic in my approach to trauma patients.
Student 9 – Sept 16th –
All delivered in a systematic and relevant order. Good combination of theory, skills and scenarios. Very knowledgeable instructors.
Student 10 – Sept 16th –
I found that each of the lessons were well structured. I found the breathing assessment to be very beneficial in consolidating my technique and use of tools.
The scenarios were well designed and pushed my bandwidth which required me to focus on delegation and prioritisation of interventions.
