				Completed First Aid & CPR in Coomera.Mel B is a credit to the company!Her down to earth attitude and approach made the course seem relatable from the beginning to the end. Mel is extremely knowledgeable with amazing communication skills ! I will definitely be back to renew my certification (secretly hoping Mel will be the educator again) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

				The staff at First Aid Accident & Emergency at Coomera are amazing and incredibly informative. I have had the pleasure of being trained by them for several years now and they are always up to date with current procedures and always make the learning fun, relaxed and enjoyable. A special mention to Rachel who has trained me for the last couple of years. Thank you. I will definitely be back next year, and the year after, and the year after......

				Just had my annual CPR update course and really appreciated the simpler way Josh presented it. Learned so much more, lots of practical ways to look at how and when to provide CPR in an emergency situation. Excellent course.

				I have completed several first aid and CPR courses over the last 8 years and this is by far the best I have completed . It was fully engaging, communicated clearly , therefore understood and received well. I learnt so much on this day I'm more than confident i could preform CPR without a problem doing so or feeling nervous about doing so. I learnt more in this one day with Mel B . She was amazing, real, explained through real life experience , easy to visualise. I moved to coomera 6 months ago ot otherwise i would be doing this in Brisbane listening to a robot like demonstration again. Mel has a personality very relatable. I will go back here to do my next year’s CPR review.
