About this course

Physical intervention can be sensitive territory, with clear frameworks needed to safeguard children and the staff caring for them.

Learners will gain an understanding of physical intervention and an ability to answer even the most difficult questions on the topic. They will also be taught a range of teaching methods and public speaking skills that will enhance their abilities as an instructor.

This Physical Intervention Train the Trainer course also allows learners to teach colleagues and other members of staff the restraint techniques that have been approved by the home or institution, a more tailored approach to physical intervention and restraint training.
