Staff Training
Physical intervention skills are sometimes required for the safe and legal management of physically challenging behaviour.
Yesterday we had our external trainer to come in and provide Physical Intervention training to our staff! This training can help prepare staff to safely and humanely react to crisis situations where restrictive physical intervention is the last resort to prevent serious harm.
Staff will be able to identify challenging behaviour and know when to intervene, know physical intervention techniques, know the risks involved in physical intervention, know the causes and diffusion of anger and aggression, learn unacceptable practice with adults and children and also learn how physical intervention is used with people with dementia. Below is a little snippet of the course which was very interactive and informative whilst also making staff feel at ease! Great work team!
