It was an absolute pleasure and a privilege to train alongside the crews from Antrim Fire Station.

Days like this are exactly what good inter-agency working should look like – shared learning, mutual respect and realistic training that benefits everyone involved. We’re proud to support the Northern Ireland Fire & Rescue Service and, most importantly, to contribute to improving pre-hospital care for our communities here in Northern Ireland.

We very much look forward to continuing to build this relationship and developing future joint training opportunities together. Thanks again to the whole team – we’ll see you at the next one.

New recommendation for pad placement during cardiac arrest. Healthcare is always changing, updating and improving outcomes. Make sure you stay up to date with guidelines with your yearly BLS/ILS/ALS refreshers, no matter what grade you are. See our website for our upcoming courses www.k2i-eoc.com

A huge thank you to K2 International for showcasing our Openhouse Bag System in their Major Trauma OSCE – EMT Training in Action. 👏

It’s fantastic to see our equipment supporting such realistic, high-pressure training scenarios - exactly the kind of environments our bags are built for.

We’re proud to play a small part in helping future EMTs and paramedics train for real-world readiness. 💪

🚑 Major Trauma OSCE – EMT training in Action 🚑

At K2 International, we don’t train people to pass a test — we train them to perform under pressure. Every scenario is built for consequence and competence, not checkbox learning.

Our EMT students faced their Major Trauma OSCE in true K2i style: cold, cramped, and chaotic. Real-world conditions, real-world decisions.

From confined spaces to environmental challenges, every element of our programme is designed to mirror the unpredictable nature of pre-hospital care — because patients don’t collapse in classrooms.

Each learner worked from the K2 International x Openhouse Bag System, built to our specification to streamline trauma management and support rapid team deployment. When seconds matter, organised gear means better outcomes.

🎓 Northern Ireland’s only approved FREUC 5 EMT course
📍 Randalstown | Scenario-led | Paramedic-delivered
🌍 Placements in the UK and abroad
💷 Graduate discount code GRAD10

Train like it matters — because it does.
