If your team are overdue their training, but you can't achieve social distancing for everyone to attend in-house, I offer all of my sessions online via Zoom.

15th June 2020:

I'm excited to announce that I am now taking bookings for training sessions, which can take place either in-house or online via Zoom. 

Please take a look at the training section for information on the different courses I offer. 

Please note for in-house sessions to take place safely, the following will apply:


There must be enough room for delegates to sit 1-2m apart.

This may mean a reduced number of staff members can attend the session, so we may need to have 2 or more separate training sessions. 

We can discuss this at the time of booking.

 
Face masks to be worn by each delegate.
These must be provided by the practice.
 
Handwashing will take place at regular intervals and all equipment will be disinfected between uses. 

Practical elements to the courses have been altered to ensure that everybody can practice social distancing during the session.
 
If you would rather the training took place online, you would need to download the free Zoom app onto a suitable device (laptop/tablet/smartphone). 

Full instructions will be sent upon booking.

As there will be no practical element to the basic life support session if you choose the online training, the session time will be reduced to 2 hours and the cost reduced. 

Please contact me for details.

1st June 2020:

Lockdown.

Following government advice on social distancing, I have decided to postpone all in-house training sessions for now, to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Stay safe.
