Welcome to the summer 2011 Trauma & Resuscitation Services Catalogue.

It has been an exciting year so far for TRS, we have recently employed our first full time business manager, John Griffiths who has already made significant inroads to expanding the products and services that we can offer whilst smoothing out our order process for our customers.

We have also welcomed several new instructors on board this year, who are all experienced in pre-hospital trauma care and like the rest of the team, committed to delivering the highest quality training to clients I believe this year will be the year of Clinical Governance within fire & rescue services and the manufacturing sectors with extensive changes in legislation in light of the 7/7 London Bombing enquiry. We have focused intensively on improving the way we provide this service and I am delighted with the robust system’s we have put in place.

I am confident that our clinical governance team will continue to lead the way in this complex and often misunderstood area.

I hope you enjoy reading about our latest training, products and services and I look forward to working with you again soon.
