Catapult Environmental Inc. recently contracted Debbie Chene to conduct an in-house Red Cross First Aid/CPR Training. Catapult incorporates safety as a core value in our daily operations, and would like to thank Debbie for what I believe as one of the best real life First Aid Training/CPR courses I have ever taken in my 20+ years in the oil and gas sector. Debbie was able to bring the training to a level that I know will impact and potentially save a life. Her training made it simple to remember what’s truly important for a First Aider, the ABC’s.
Thank you Debbie for your training expertise and impacting each and everyone at Catapult Environmental Inc. Your course has given us both the basic skills and the confidence to potentially change the outcome of an unfortunate event.

It was absolutely interesting! I never realized how important first aid is. I was very thankful that you gave personal stories of situations that you came upon. I thought it must’ve been very hard for you to talk about them. So I want to thank you for sharing. Honestly I have no negative points at all. I’m very grateful that you have chosen this path it really does show your passion.

Wow! What a great course. I had never taken a first aid course before and I was shocked with what I didn’t know. Debbie was a great instructor, the scenarios were realistic, and it truly gets you prepared for situations you can encounter any day. It was also incredible timing as I was preparing to be a new dad and I feel so much better (same with his mom) having this training before he was born just in case anything were to happen. I highly recommend Debbie for this course and your confidence will increase after you take it.
Thank you!

What a difference creativity makes! Our employees are used to the same old First Aid Class where they can hardly wait for it to end. Debco’s training class was unique in presentation, using props to create realistic trauma situations. As a result the employees were more engaged in the class and all walked away feeling like they actually received quality training. For the first time the word to other employees will be “you should take that training if you can” not, “it was just the same boring training we always get”. Thank you Debco – you are “FIRST CLASS” with Blue-Con Excavating Ltd.

When entering the room and meeting Debbie the instructor, she made the class feel warm and made it easy to learn with the subjects at hand. When asked a question about something, if she didn’t have the answer, she would have it pretty quick. She is very easy to deal with and also made it fun to learn. I had never taken first aid before, and I felt it was focused on the topics of first aid and learning how to save someone’s life when needed. Debbie is a great teacher and has a lot of information in the matters of first aid. She knows how to slow someone down to ensure the student knows what to do without panicking when someone needs help. I would take the course again if Debbie was the trainer.
