About the Presenter
Very interesting and helpful
Training was clear and always stick into points and get detailed explanation about each points. The flow was good and I am satisfied
Thank you for the course. Very useful and informative!
The analogy between not wearing and helmet while riding a bike and never getting hurt vs staff not adhering to protocols and not getting hurt means an increase in not adhering to protocols was great and will use when discussing why it is important.
Great presentation! Enjoyed the visuals and support for reducing staff injuries.
Great information on an under-discussed topic. Helpful information from where to start and how to maintain. I will be putting some of these in place at my district.
