### 5/5 — Really Useful

*2021-04-10, version 1.1.0*

User friendly and intuitive app. I have found it useful in both emergency and outpatient settings.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2021-02-07, version 1.0.2*

Really thorough and user friendly app. The inclusion of the timer in the resus section I thought was really innovative and useful, not something I’ve seen elsewhere. Cracking paediatric app for paediatric, neonatal and A&E staff.

### 5/5 — 😀
