You may already know to start CPR if someone has stopped breathing. But what if they show abnormal breathing, known as agonal gasps?

Agonal gasps can look or sound like irregular, gasping, or snorting breaths. They can happen during cardiac arrest and may be mistaken for normal breathing.

Recognising these signs quickly is crucial—because CPR should still be started immediately.

👉 Scroll through the images below to learn how to recognise agonal gasps.

Another day, another location, another cohort of learners! 🚑

Today we’re heading to Aviemore to deliver the QNUK Award in Emergency First Aid at Work course, and this time our learners are from a local hotel team.

Hospitality environments are busy, fast-paced workplaces where staff are often the first people on hand when someone becomes unwell or injured — whether it’s a guest feeling faint, a slip or fall, a burn in the kitchen, or a more serious medical emergency. Having trained first aiders on site can make a real difference in those first critical minutes before emergency services arrive.

Throughout the day we’ll be covering:• Primary survey and assessing a casualty• CPR and use of an AED (defibrillator)• Choking management• Recovery position• Treatment of bleeding, burns and minor injuries• Dealing with shock and unresponsive casualties

The aim isn’t just to gain a qualification — it’s to build confidence, practical skills and the ability to stay calm under pressure. By the end of the course learners will know how to recognise an emergency, take control of a situation and provide safe, effective first aid to both colleagues and guests.

Great to be working with another local business that is investing in staff safety, wellbeing and customer care.

Good luck to today’s group — looking forward to a great session and some hands-on practice!

Courses finished. Admin done. Video evidence uploaded. Paperwork filed. And we’re still not stopping.

January and February? Absolute chaos — in the best way. Back-to-back courses in Fire Safety, First Aid, Door Supervisor, Security Guard, plus Security Guard Refresher and Door Supervisor Refresher. Our instructors haven’t had a minute to breathe. Meanwhile, most other providers are still trying to find their first booking.

Tomorrow? More training for a hotel chain we’ve already crushed this month. And on top of that, two more Fire Safety courses — Glasgow and Laggan. Competitors? They’re probably wondering how anyone could be this busy.

Trust Highland Training Group Ltd – the North’s preferred training provider for professional, accredited qualifications in safety and security. When it comes to keeping staff safe, certified, and ready for anything — we don’t just compete. We dominate.

It’s always great to receive that notification from the awarding body to say the course results are now available — but even better when you open it and discover that the entire cohort has successfully passed! 🎉

A huge congratulations to the twelve students on the Stornoway cohort who completed the Award for Door Supervisor within the Private Security Industry course, delivered from 2nd–8th February 2026.

Throughout the week you all showed real commitment, professionalism, and a willingness to learn. From classroom learning and legislation, to conflict management, physical intervention and practical assessments, you approached every part of the course with a positive attitude and determination to succeed. Passing this qualification is not easy, and each of you earned it.

You should all be extremely proud of the effort you put in. It has been a pleasure delivering the training and seeing your confidence grow day by day. We now wish you every success as you move forward into the private security industry and begin your careers as licensed Door Supervisors.

Well done again everyone — a fantastic achievement and fully deserved! 👏
