Our Patient Handling Without Devices course is a focused 4-hour session designed to help staff move and assist individuals safely without the use of mechanical aids. This training is essential for those working in early years, schools or care settings where lifting or supporting people may be required in low-risk situations.

This course is ideal for staff who may need to assist with falls, repositioning or helping individuals with limited mobility — particularly where mechanical aids aren’t available or appropriate.

Participants will gain confidence in applying safe manual handling techniques that minimise risk to both staff and individuals. The session blends theory with lots of hands-on practice and scenario-based learning, ensuring skills can be applied safely and sensitively in real-world situations.

Delivered exclusively as a private group course, we tailor the content to your environment and policies to ensure it meets your team’s specific needs and the practical realities of your setting.
