More about Healthcare Skills Training International

John Docherty Regional Manager, North UK, Richard Wolf UK Ltd says:

“We use the Theatre Access 360 course from Healthcare Skills Training International.

The course is a National Occupational Standard, and as such, has on obvious attraction. Any professional qualification we con provide our staff helps us to attract the best candidates for the product specialist role.

Those candidates are put under an amount of rigour by this course which reassures me that the people we send out to represent us in the field are trained to the highest possible standard.

That gives us confidence that our product support professionals represent our company in the best possible manner. I can have full confidence that Zuzonna, a recent recruit who completed Healthcare Skills Theatre Access 360 in 2023, will represent us in the best manner and that this training will have played no small part.”

Zuzanna Gosch is a recent recruit for Richard Wolf UK Ltd. She recently completed our Theatre Access 360 course. Zuzanna says:

“I think the course was very well delivered. It was a lot of information but delivered in a way which it didn’t feel like too much. Having Amanda come on was also really memorable and helped the information go in. The assessments were in a good format and plenty of time to complete them. It was good to have experienced staff on and have the OR staff, surgeons and a representative’s input.”
