Introducing McKay Medical Services: Doctor-Led First Aid Training for Real-World Risk
McKay Medical Services is a new, locally-based first aid
training provider offering high-quality, doctor-led training for businesses,
schools, and community organisations across Norfolk and Suffolk.
Founded by Dr Caitlyn McKay, an NHS doctor with over a decade of frontline
clinical experience, McKay Medical Services specialises in practical,
confidence-building first aid training rooted in real emergencies. Caitlyn has worked
extensively in Emergency Medicine, trauma care, paediatrics, and acute hospital
settings, supporting patients and families in high-pressure, time-critical
situations. Alongside her clinical work, she is an experienced educator,
delivering structured, engaging training to a wide range of learners.
This combination of medical expertise and teaching experience makes McKay
Medical Services particularly well suited to high-risk and safety-critical
workplaces. Training is tailored to the specific risks of each industry,
ensuring courses are relevant, realistic, and directly applicable to the
environments staff work in. This includes sectors such as offshore and
marine industries, construction and engineering, manufacturing, utilities,
forestry, education settings, and organisations with lone workers or
public-facing roles.
Alongside workplace training, Caitlyn is especially passionate about
improving access to high-quality first aid education within schools, colleges,
universities, and community charities. She believes first aid is a life
skill that should be taught with clarity, realism, and confidence — empowering
teachers, students, and volunteers to respond effectively when it matters most.
To support this, McKay Medical Services offers significantly reduced rates
for educational settings and charitable organisations, helping ensure that
cost is not a barrier to high-quality, doctor-led training. Caitlyn is keen to
work with local organisations and the Chamber network to help spread awareness
of these opportunities and reach groups who may not otherwise access formal training.
McKay Medical Services offers a range of FFA-certified, Ofqual-regulated and
HSE-compliant first aid courses, all delivered with a calm, practical
approach and tailored to the real risks faced by each organisation. Every
course prioritises realistic scenarios, clear communication, and professional
boundaries — preparing people for real emergencies, not just box-ticking.
