What our clients think
Christine Duong31. July, 2025I recently completed the First Aid and Manual Handling course with Lisa and thoroughly enjoyed it. Her extensive experience in first aid was evident throughout the training, and her passion for the subject really stood out. I came away from the course with a solid understanding of PHECC principles. Highly recommend Tribes First Aid.
Darragh Earls27. July, 2025Great course learned a lot of invaluable skills. Would certainly recommend 👍
Aoife Bowens28. May, 2025A very informative, concise and empowering course, definitely would recommend attending Tribes First Aid Course by Lisa.
marie21. May, 2025Absolutely fantastic first aid course! Lisa was incredibly knowledgeable, full of detailed, practical advice, and made the entire session both engaging and memorable. Her humor and energy kept everyone captivated from start to finish. I left feeling confident and well-prepared to handle real-life first aid situations. Highly recommend!
Stephen Graham19. May, 2025Superb course, brilliantly delivered, with relevant, real-life experiences. Removing the fear factor around the De-Fib was my main takeaway, and I 100% recommend this course to all sports clubs, coaches and Adult players. Lisa was engaging, knowledgable, and hugely understood the challenges and worries that the public feel in many situations.
michael byrne11. May, 2025Excellent course and instructor, very informative and gives confidence to step if the need arises. Thanks Lisa.
Karina Reno5. May, 2025Recently updated my first aid training with Lisa of Tribes First Aid. Lisa is an able and experienced professional, the course was excellent and I am feeling more confident with these skills.
Ellie Bradley1. May, 2025I had my second First Aid course with Lisa last Sunday. It was so informative, interesting while being entertaining. What I mean by entertaining is Lisa was able keep the spirits lifted throughout a period that can sometimes be quite tedious. She was able to answer all the questions we had as a sailing school with personal experience and knowledge. No questions was too silly or too exaggerated. Myself and the team in Clifden Sailing School could not recommend her enough. Lisa is a true professional and I will be hoping to always come back to her courses. Thanks again Lisa.
Jacqui Conway29. April, 2025Amazing day of training with Lisa a few weeks ago. I had first aid training many years ago and it just didn't compare at all to Lisa's level of expertise. By the end of the day I really felt confident that I became someone that could react in a first aid scenario. Instead of just explaining what to do, she explains what to expect and the reality of dealing with people and other distractions in an emergency. This really helped me to imagine the scenario and what I should prioritise. Lisa was also open to questions and was extremely approachable throughout the training. I'd highly highly recommend her services to anyone that wants to not only learn about first aid but also wants to walk away convinced that they can jump in to help in a real-world situation.Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 45 reviews
