Informative, Empowering, Practical & Fun!
Why Us
Informative, Empowering, Practical & Fun!
Our hands-on courses are provided by Dr Andrea Wraith; starting life as a General Dental Practitioner she went on to qualify as a doctor and work in A&E, anaesthesia and intensive care… with decades of experience behind her she understands where you are coming from and knows what you really need to know to keep your patients safe.
Informative
We provide you with knowledge in an easily digestible form. Refreshing things you already know, deepening your understanding and expanding your knowledge base.
Empowering
With knowledge comes power… and with empowerment comes peace of mind. Peace of mind that you can prevent problems escalating by managing patients properly & that you can deal with whatever might present.
Practical
As we keep our delegate numbers low we can provide a very interactive and practical learning experience… rather than being a ‘passive recipient’ we want our delegates to be truly engaged because in this way you will get the most from the course.
Fun
Our aim is also to make our courses enjoyable!

Reassuring & Supportive
No one wants to face a medical emergency at work, but thanks to Andrea’s training, I feel confident and prepared should the need ever arise. She explains everything clearly and thoroughly, making sure we know exactly what to do. Andrea is a lovely caring person and I always look forward to seeing her each year – her sessions are both reassuring and supportive.

Interesting, relevant, concise
Andrea’s presentation started dramatically…. having grabbed the attention of the 200+ in the audience she then managed to cover the whole spectrum of medical emergencies in a most interesting, relevant and concise way. Easily the best presentation I have ever listened to on this subject.
Dr Paul RedstoneGDP, Hove
