Training with Enhance Learning and Support
The training I received was brilliant!  I loved every minute and it was really interesting.  I would recommend to everyone.  I’ve learnt how to keep children with epilepsy safe and also how to use an epi-pen safely.

Rose – teaching assistant
Very professional and concise training given, I was made to feel at ease and confidence to complete enteral feeding training and felt competent afterwards.

Joanne – teaching assistant
The training I received from Chrissy was very thorough.  The information provided was very useful and the support I received during and after enteral feeding training was great!  I felt very confident with using the skills I obtained through this training and I was reassured all the way through and felt competent.  Highly recommended.

Chloe – teacher
Chrissy trained me in Enteral feeding, , I really found the practical pump training to be useful.  Chrissy was very supportive throughout my training and was a good mentor.

Becky – teaching assistant
I attended training on asthma, epilepsy and allergies.  This training session was useful; it helped me to understand the signs and symptoms of asthma, epilepsy and allergies.  This training was clearly presented and Chrissy had great knowledge in these areas.

Eleanor – support staff
The school nursing service provided by Chrissy and her team plays a proactive role in meeting the health needs of our pupils.  Contracting in this service gives us reassurance that the health needs of our pupils are under the appropriate team, SLT’s do not have a background in nursing, EL&S provides us in the expertise needed so we can focus on the education of our pupils.

Darren, Head Teacher
EL&S have provided us with a nursing service that is flexible, compassionate and delivery’s effective care.  Our pupils feel comfortable with the nursing team and have built positive relationships with all the staff in the team.  Chrissy delivers an individual approach to the nursing service, we have been able to buy into vaccinations for our staff for example as well as additional support for our pupils, which is great as we can tailor the nursing service to meet our school needs.
