GP’s Practices

“Every GP and member of the practice team needs an annual CPR update and up until recently I have found these rather boring, longwinded, confusing and not particularly useful.
However since we have had our training with Clive at First Response, this has changed. Not only have these training sessions been good team building exercises, fun and useful, we now have clear guidelines and cards on what we all should be doing, we have a better equipped emergency trolley which we all know where to find and how to use and hopefully we will all be better prepared for that next emergency”

“First Response has enabled us to maintain and support our life support skills. The multi-disciplinary training and role-play have helped us to work together effectively for the good of patients. Items of resuscitation equipment keep changing and First Response ensure we have the best tools for the trade. They are a part of our team”

“The Doctors and staff all look forward to our annual resuscitation training from First Response. It is always interesting, with hands on skills being refreshed and updated in a most enjoyable way along with re-familiarisation with the equipment used”.
Dr Hugh Goddard MB FRCA MRCGP

“We have used First Response for many years and have always had an excellent service delivery for all the training carried out by them. They are extremely flexible and will work around the busy schedule that general practice now finds itself in to accommodate all our requirements. Clive makes the courses interesting and humorous whilst covering all aspects of the subject in hand”.

First Response has given the practice team much more confidence in the area of resuscitation. The teaching is excellent and significant changes have been made in the way we now approach resuscitation.
Dr Charlie Berrisford BSc. MBBS MRCGP (GP Principal)
Number 18 Surgery Bath

The CPR and Defib training provided by First Response was direct and easily assimilated by the administrative staff and the clinical staff. We all worked as a team with Aide Memoire cards which were extremely useful. I would not hesitate to recommend First Response to any orgainsation requiring CPR training –It was a very practical and enjoyable session.

“Clive is an excellent tutor and very informative. He is able to put staff at ease, especially non-clinical team members. His style of teaching is informal but manages to convey all the essential latest updates via role play and team work.
He has also advised us on essential equipment and we have such streamlined our ‘resus box’.
We welcome him back every year.
