In-house oxygen training led by Howard Cheatham

On Monday, 13 April, many of our staff and Oxygen volunteers took part in an important safety and knowledge training session.

This session was taken by one of our senior oxygen operators, Howard Cheatham. Howard is also a Trustee for The Neuro Therapy Network.

The training focused on some vital technical and emergency procedures. Although many of the attendees were experienced operators, we also welcomed some newer volunteers.

This session was well attended, and there was a lot of interaction and interesting observations from the participants.

It was a particularly busy day at The Brightwell, as we also had our annual fire inspection, so not only did we have lots of additional people in our Oxygen Suite, we also had firemen throughout the centre! It was all very exciting with fire engines on-site and lots of alarm testing!

Thank you to everybody who had to change their sessions due to this training.
