  • Stuart has excellent knowledge base around this subject (I would think the same of all his training subjects). The topics covered were all relevant and essential to the training and medication in general. Stuart himself has natural attributes to train and interpersonal skills that ensured that everyone was welcomed, their opinions valued and one came away not just empowered to deliver and develop my training packages around medication but also a renewed passion for my general role and responsibilities with social care settings as a registered manager.
