MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR: STEWART HANSEN
Vital Signs First was founded by Stewart Hansen, who leads the training. Stewart first learned emergency first aid during his 6 years of front line military service, and was originally trained by St John Ambulance. Throughout his working life he has been the person companies relied on to manage first aid on site, and he now turns that real-world experience into practical, hands-on training.
Stewart delivers Level 3 qualifications including Emergency First Aid at Work, First Aid at Work and Paediatric First Aid, as well as BLS and ILS for healthcare and dental teams. Learners on his recent First Aid at Work and Paediatric First Aid courses rated his teaching 5 out of 5. Read what they said.
Stewart holds an enhanced DBS certificate, so he’s ready to train in schools, nurseries and care settings, and Vital Signs First is a ProTrainings Approved Centre. Classes are kept to a maximum of 12 so everyone gets plenty of hands-on practice. Because Stewart runs every course himself, you’ll have the same trainer every year, someone who already knows your site and your team.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
CAN YOU TRAIN OUR STAFF AT OUR WORKPLACE?
Yes, that’s how most of our courses run. We come to you anywhere across Milton Keynes and the surrounding counties, so nobody has to travel. If you can’t host the training, we’ll find a suitable venue near you.
WHAT ROOM DO YOU NEED?
A room with enough clear floor space for everyone to kneel down and practise CPR on a manikin, plus a chair and some table space for each learner. A meeting room or staff room with the tables pushed back is usually perfect. We bring all the equipment.
HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN YOU TRAIN AT ONCE?
Up to 12 per course, so everyone gets proper hands-on practice. Our on-site prices cover a group of up to 6, with a set fee for each extra person.
HOW MUCH DOES ON-SITE TRAINING COST?
Emergency First Aid at Work at your workplace starts from £650 for up to 6 people, then £90 for each extra person. You’ll find prices for all our on-site courses in our full price list.
DO YOU CHARGE FOR TRAVEL?
Travel is included within 30 miles of Milton Keynes. If you’re further afield there may be a small travel charge, and we’ll always tell you before you book.
HOW LONG ARE CERTIFICATES VALID?
First Aid at Work, Emergency First Aid at Work and Paediatric First Aid certificates last three years. Healthcare and dental teams should refresh their BLS or ILS training every year.
WHAT IF WE NEED TO CHANGE OR CANCEL?
With 14 days’ notice or more, you can move your course or cancel with a full refund. Between 7 and 13 days, you can move it once free of charge, or cancel for 50% of the fee. With less than 7 days’ notice the full fee is due, although we’ll always try to find another date. If someone can’t make it, you can send a colleague in their place at no extra charge. Full details are in our booking terms.
