Russell Baxter, Founder & Clinical Director
As a Paramedic with 18 years of frontline prehospital care experience and 4 years in paramedic education, I am deeply passionate about shaping the future of emergency medical services through high-quality training and mentorship. My extensive hands-on experience in fast-paced, high-pressure environments has given me invaluable insights that I now bring to the classroom, ensuring that learners receive practical, real-world knowledge alongside essential theory.
As an educator, I am dedicated to fostering the next generation of prehospital care professionals with enthusiasm, expertise, and a student-centred approach. My focus is on delivering engaging, evidence-based training that equips learners with the skills and confidence they need to excel in their vocational qualifications and beyond. Whether teaching clinical skills, emergency protocols, or professional development, I am committed to inspiring excellence in prehospital care.
Russell is passionate about education and continuing professional development.
