Highly recommend.Posted on Greg SchefeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Peter is very professional and very knowledgeable and experienced. He is very understanding of all students and conveys the information in a way everyone can understand and learn. I would highly recommend.Posted on Lee FlanaganTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed the training with Peter. I’ve done my training with him in previous years. I feel fully equipped to deal with a first aid situation should the need arise.Posted on Kate BowernTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently completed my First Aid and CPR certification with Immediate Response First Aid Training and I cannot speak more highly of Peter and the way he delivered the course. He explained everything in such an in-depth, grounded way but never overwhelming, always clear and genuinely engaging. It was, without doubt, the most interesting and enjoyable First Aid course I have ever done. Peter’s years of experience and breadth of knowledge stood out in every aspect of the course. He manages to strike the perfect balance ~ informative but never boring, funny yet appropriately serious and always patient. Any time I needed clarification, he explained things further with ease and reassurance. I’ll be returning to Immediate Response First Aid Training every year for my CPR refresher and every three years for First Aid. There’s simply no one I’d rather learn from. I’m also booking my teenagers in for Peter’s basic First Aid training so they can feel empowered, confident and prepared should they ever face a situation where their knowledge could save a life. A heartfelt thank you to Peter for a training experience that left me feeling capable, confident and ready to respond in any emergency, including CPR. I walked out the door with skills I trust and that’s invaluable. EDIT: My son broke his arm yesterday and I was calm and able to support my son emotionally and physically. While supporting him through the initial shock and pain, I immediately thought of what I learnt from Peter. It helped me enormously.
