About Your Trainer: Toby Osborne
Toby Osborne is no ordinary first aid instructor. With over 14 years’ experience as a Combat Medical Technician (CMT) in the British Armed Forces, including serving with the Parachute Regiment, Toby has dealt with medical emergencies in some of the toughest conditions imaginable.
His post-military career took him into the Middle East, where he worked as a mentor and trainer, helping to elevate the skills and readiness of personnel operating in challenging environments. Toby also served as a security manager in Northern Iraq, managing complex operations and ensuring team safety in a high-threat, volatile region. This hands-on experience brings a unique depth and realism to every course he leads.
Founding Optimal First Aid was a natural step for Toby, combining his passion for practical, no-nonsense medical training with his commitment to quality and relevance. His courses are informed by real operational experience, not just textbook theory.
Toby’s approach is practical, direct, and highly effective. He’s known for his calm, confident presence, something born from years working in remote and hostile settings and a genuine desire to equip learners with the skills they need to respond decisively when it counts.
Regularly updating course materials to reflect the latest best practices, Toby ensures Optimal First Aid stays ahead of the curve. His training is far from a simple checklist; it’s immersive, engaging, and focused on real-world medical preparedness.
If you want first aid training that’s honest, in-depth, and backed by real-world operational insight, Toby Osborne is the trainer to trust.
