Frequently Asked Questions

We want to change that gut reaction when staff hear the words ‘mandatory training’.

How is the training delivered?

We bring our expertise directly to your workplace. Our skilled instructors provide on-site training using your actual equipment and environments, ensuring maximum relevance and application.

The session combines essential theory with substantial hands-on practice in your specific setting.

How long is the Moving and Positioning of People course?

This compact 3-hour session includes a short break. The focused format teaches essential handling skills efficiently with minimal workplace disruption.

What is the maximum number of participants?

To ensure quality practical experience, we limit groups to 3-8 participants. This optimal size allows for individualized coaching, thorough practice with equipment, and tailored feedback based on your specific patient population.

How long does the Moving & Positioning People certificate last?

Certificates are valid for one year, with annual refresher training strongly recommended to maintain safe handling practices.

Our automated reminder system helps keep your team's certifications current and compliant.

How does this course complement the Moving and Positioning of Objects course?

This practical people handling course typically follows our Objects handling session, building on foundational principles while focusing specifically on patient-centred techniques.

Together, they provide comprehensive manual handling skills for healthcare environments.

Can the training be customised? 

Yes, we customise! Your workplace is unique, and your training should be too. We'll tailor scenarios faster than you can say "workplace-specific hazards."

Need to have a specific focus on common workplace injuries or infection prevention? Whatever you need, we've got you covered.

Is this course accredited and recognized by regulatory bodies? 

You bet! We're so compliant, even the auditors get excited. HSE-approved and recognized across the UK, our training ticks all the boxes.

What specific topics are covered in the Moving and Positioning of Objects course?

This jam-packed course provides the full coverage, including person-centred approaches, dignity preservation, risk assessment, equipment utilization, and practical handling techniques. We emphasize methods that protect both caregivers and patients during all movement activities.

Check out our "From A to Z" section for the full superhero skillset we cover.

Are there any prerequisites for attending this course? 

Our requirements are simple. So, no excuses!

1. Participants should wear comfortable clothing suitable for demonstrating manual handling techniques
2. Any physical limitations or health concerns should be communicated in advance
3. Attendance for the full session is necessary for certification

Do you provide all necessary training materials and aid equipment? 

We bring all instructional materials, though you'll need to use your workplace's actual objects and equipment for maximum relevance. This approach ensures participants learn techniques directly applicable to their daily responsibilities.

Is there a practical assessment component to the course? 

Sure thing! We're not about death by PowerPoint. Your team will get hands-on experience that'll make them the go-to first-aiders at every family BBQ.

Are your trainers certified and experienced? 

Certified? They wrote the book on certification! Our trainers are active emergency responders who've seen it all. They're not just reading from a manual. They're sharing real-life experiences that save lives in a broad range of emergency situations.

How does your course address challenging patient handling situations?

We incorporate real scenarios from your environment, including handling complex patients with limited mobility or special considerations. Your team will learn to handle situations they might actually face, not ones from a generic textbook.
