Course Summary
In health and social care services, moving and handling injuries account for 40% of work-related sickness absence.
Around 5000 moving and handling injuries are reported each year in health services and around 2000 in social care.
Moving and handling is a key part of the working day for most employees; from moving of equipment, laundry,
catering, supplies or waste to assisting residents in moving.
Over 50% of injuries arise from the moving and handling of people.
Poor moving and handling practice can lead to:
• back pain and musculoskeletal disorders, which can lead to inability to work
• moving and handling accidents which can injure both the person being moved and the employee
• discomfort and a lack of dignity for the person being moved
This Initial course has been designed to enable trainees to be able to carry out People Moving & Handling
techniques correctly and helping to prevent the above bullet points.
This course is ideal for those working in the care environment and have had no previous training; candidates will

Do you have a specific training requirement?
Do you want training to be tailored to your needs?
Do you want your employees to all receive the same message?
This is what First Response does!!
Bespoke training is a challenge we always relish. First Response have designed and implemented Health & Safety training programmes with many of our customers over
the years. These bespoke courses range from very minor changes to standard courses, such as for schools we have added a ‘Paediatric Element’ to the standard HSE
approved Emergency First Aid at Work course , to designing a complete three year health and safety training programme for one of the largest employers in the UK.
Examples of bespoke training
Example 1: This example is a package First Response delivers for a company with 5000+ employees of whom include Directors, Office Staff, Cleaners, Electricians and
Plumbers etc. For this “Triennial Training” package , we provide one day of training per year to all staff on subjects of the clients choice.
The schedule below shows the topics delivered as part of a rolling three year programme. Each course is tailored to the policies and procedures of the organisation, whilst
also including what is required by legislation.
Year 1: Basic First, Asbestos Awareness & Occupational Health
Year 2: Manual Handling, Working at Height, Asbestos Awareness & Driving Safely
Year 3: Principles of Risk assessment, Environmental Awareness, Electrical Safety & Asbestos Awareness
Example 2: This example is a half day first aid course designed specifically for a care organisation who provide homes and services that enable people to enjoy a good
later life through independent living. Our client didn’t require fully trained First Aid at Work staff as they are not solely responsible for the people in their care however they
wanted their staff to have the confidence and basic skills to deal with the most common injuries or illnesses they come across.
