We’re Here When It Matters Most
At Respire Medical Services, we believe that anyone, regardless of background or experience, can learn the skills to save a life. Based in Bracknell and serving communities across Wokingham, Ascot, Reading, and the surrounding areas, we deliver first aid and medical training that’s practical, empowering, and built around the people in the room.
Who We Are
Respire Medical Services was founded with a simple mission: to close the gap between everyday first aid knowledge and the kind of clinical confidence that makes a real difference in an emergency.
Our team is made up of paramedics.
Will is a specialist paramedic and parent with 10 years’ NHS experience across ambulance, urgent care, police custody, and primary care settings. He teaches advanced life support, with a strong interest in education and professional development. Recently qualified in independent prescribing, he’s now completing a master’s in Advanced Clinical Practice. Outside of work, Will enjoys singing in his local community choir, playing guitar, time with his 2 kittens, and being a dad to his young son.
Jake is an experienced paramedic practitioner with 15 years in the NHS, including 12 years with the ambulance service as a paramedic and clinical educator. He now works in primary care while advancing his postgraduate studies. Outside of work, Jake enjoys archaeology and family time with his two children.
This isn’t just a list of credentials. We shape every course you attend with genuine frontline experience, the kind that comes from responding to real emergencies, not just reading about them!
What We Do
We offer a full range of first aid and emergency training programmes, from essential CPR and AED use to advanced resuscitation and major bleed management. Whether you’re an individual looking to feel more prepared, a business meeting your HSE obligations, a school or childcare setting working towards OFSTED compliance, or a GP practice or healthcare team maintaining CQC standards – we have a course designed for you.
We try to keep our face-to-face sessions small, so every learner gets hands-on time with real equipment.
We also offer online courses for teams and individuals who need flexible learning options
