Patrick Rodriguez

This review is for the Brampton First-Aid CPR course taught by Colin. Firstly, the course is well organized and although it is only 2 days long, there is a wealth of knowledge that is learned to handle many situations requiring first-aid or CPR. Colin is a wonderful instructor who has real-world experience as a working paramedic. His expertise and experiences helped to prove points and demonstrate different techniques during the course. If you are in doubt about selecting a course that is affiliated with Red Cross, do not hesitate with SOS and Colin as the instructor. Thanks!read more

Fabrizio Sacco
