The training provided meant a lady who has been in hospital for 2 years can now go home in supported accommodation close to her family. This is a fantastic outcome and we are looking forward to being a part of her journey. We very much enjoyed the tracheostomy training session and look forward to utilising First Aid Pro in future!
