Micks pretty good/efficient. Always learn something new (do it yearly for 6yrs now) and usually finish early. My jokes are better than Micks though

Not sure how many years Iv’e been doing first aid with Mick but he’s the absolute best. Thanks for teaching my daughter Harper CPR today. When she got home she put her father in the recovery position. She loved today :)

Couldn't recommend BLS highly enough! I did my first aid and CPR training for the first time with Mick last week and will absolutely be returning in the future. The training is efficient, clear and understandable, practical and thorough. Mick makes the day enjoyable and relaxed, and the small group size makes it easy to feel comfortable. Highly recommend!
