I recently booked to update my CPR certificate for work as a locum Practice Nurse in the Nelson-Tasman region, with Resus Nelson. At past updates I have attended with a resigned 'it has to be done' attitude, and I was very pleasantly surprised at this one to find a confident, knowledgeable instructor who updated my rusty skills in a competent and enjoyable manner. I left feeling that I had learnt a few new skills that would not be easily forgotten, and that the certificate I received meant more than just the necessary two-yearly paperwork. I recommend Natalie to anyone wishing to update their CPR skills. - Jenn Bolderson RN
