Practical Training for Care Staff
This course is designed for staff who assist people with mobility, transfers, repositioning and other everyday moving and handling activities.
Rather than simply watching demonstrations, delegates take part in supervised practical exercises and receive feedback from the instructor. Wherever appropriate, training can incorporate your own hoists, slings, slide sheets and transfer aids.
The course helps staff understand how to support people safely while promoting dignity, comfort and independence.
Initial and Refresher Courses
We offer two principal course options:
Full-day initial training
Suitable for new care staff and employees who require more comprehensive instruction and supervised practice.
Half-day refresher training
Suitable for experienced staff who have completed previous moving and handling training and need to refresh their knowledge and practical skills.
We can help you decide which option is appropriate for your team.
