All staff involved in the moving and handling of people must be suitably trained to reduce the risk of injuries to themselves and the patient.

Back injuries within the NHS account for 40% of all sickness absence at an estimated cost of £400 million a year.

Our e-learning & workshop training will ensure that your employees have the required knowledge, skills and confidence in reducing the risk of injuries to themselves and people when moving and handling.
