Course description

In Level 2, you will expand on basic moving and handling principles and delve into the situational factors and best practice procedures that specifically help protect a person's dignity and independence during movement and handling.

A compassionate, person-centred approach to risk assessment not only tailors safety measures to individual needs, but also lays the foundation for cultivating a respectful and supportive environment. In this module, you'll discover how prioritising empathy and understanding fosters a culture of care.​
