Introduction

My name is David Orchard, and I am a resident of Peachland, British Columbia. Currently serving as a Paramedic with British Columbia Emergency Health Services and holding the position of Firefighter (Officer) with Peachland Fire and Rescue Service, I have established Orchard Safety Services in response to the escalating demand for First Aid instructors in the Okanagan Valley. My primary goal is to contribute to the welfare of my community by offering top-notch First-Aid/ Emergency response training.

With an instructional background spanning since 2013, amounting to 11 years, I have been actively involved in teaching for reputable organizations such as, The First Aid Guy (Ottawa), and presently Peachland Fire and Rescue. My instructional portfolio encompasses courses tailored for Firefighters, including Emergency Medical Responder/First Medical Responder, and health care providers/ general public, covering First Aid-BLS Health Care Provider, along with comprehensive training in Airway and Oxygen management.
