Basic Airway Management and Suction Training – HEALTH02

This basic airway management and suction training course is aimed at staff, such as healthcare assistants, nurses and carers, working in environments where the airway management of a client is required, suction necessary and a suitable suction device or machine available.

“I would like to tell you I have just completed a 3 day First Aid at Work training course with you and all I can say is WOW. The trainer deserves recognition for who he is. I’ve done many a course in my time and been bored and lost interest but your trainer was second to none from start to finish. I’ve never in my life had a connection with a trainer like him. Thank you”
