Manual Handling Trainer – Moving and Handling – Patient Handling

Finding the right trainer

• Do you need your people trained by a manual handling professional?
• Do you need to ensure the safety of your staff during difficult manual and patient handling situations?

Our trainers are not just classroom trainers but work on front line ambulances, undertaking routine transferes as well as 999 emergency work.

Our Mangual Handling Trainers are involved in some of the most complex manual handling operations and risks of any profession today.

In addition our trainers undergo regular training and have to prove their competence every years to an independent organisation.
