CA First Aid is owned and run By Stewart Richardson. We only use HSE approved First Aid instructors and assessors. Most of our instructors are also Mountain Rescue casualty care trained, ex military or offshore medics. They have all treated real life casualties in many situations. They use this vast experience to pass on their knowledge to the candidates making our courses more interesting and relevant. We try to use scenario based training were possible to make the training as life like and practical as possible.
