Testimonial
This session exceeded our expectations and was the best CPR training I have ever had. I was delighted to have a few of the Physiotherapists email me back following the course stating how impressed they were. It was awesome to finally get a look at a defibrillator and to hear it in use. The small class size is perfect, your approach is informative and entertaining. Thank you. - Kate Gordon, Activate Physiotherapy
