What a previous attendee has had to say about the Respiratory & Cardiac Nursing Skills Seminar
Anne has the gift of presenting information so simply in a way that can be understood and remembered. Her rich wealth of experience is evident and this gives her the ability to relate the information presented back to nursing practice making it clinically relevant. Through sharing of varied anecdotal experience Anne keeps your attention captivated throughout the whole day!  The two day seminar gives nurses a real sense of clinical empowerment through knowledge and understanding. Nurses return to their workplace revitalized and with an observable professional boost as a result of attending. I thoroughly recommend this seminar as being of immense value for all nurses that work with respiratory and cardiac patients.
