AI summary of reviews

Attendees particularly value the trainers’ practical expertise, clear explanations and lively, approachable style, which keeps sessions engaging and encourages questions and participation. They say demonstrations and hands-on practice with hoists, slide sheets and other equipment build confidence and make the learning relevant to real care settings, while the pre-course theory supports the practical day. The course is seen as well structured and informative, although experienced staff often find the full day repetitive.

The training went well and it was great. The trainer taught us how to used equipment and we also practice with the equipment available. The trainer was very friendly and nice.

While the trainer and the course itself were very thorough, covering all aspects of theoretical and practical moving and handling, i do believe the full day is more aimed at novice health care professionals. Having been a registered nurse for 42 years, I have attended countless days like today and I feel a few hours refresher would have sufficed. The practical aspect gave everyone the opportunity to be 'hands on'; however, the bed provided was a bariatric size, making it difficult to use standard equipment. The delegates were mismatched in size which meant bed height could not be adjusted to ensure both parties were safe and comfortable. My only other concern is that I felt the group was too large to enable the trainer to assess all delegates in practice.

Course was very lengthy for experienced nurses. A half day course if more than enough for people with years of experience, content was very repetitive considering there is lengthy e-learning also completed beforehand

The trainer was brilliant. The room setup was not good/comfortable. There were no tables to write on.

This course, as a refresh for people who already have experience in "manual and handling" to be just half day only for practicing, because the theory and assessment it is online on e-learning. Is to much 9 hours. For beginners it is perfect 9 hours. Hopefully my advice will be noted.

The course could have been a half day for a refresher course but a full day for beginners is what I would recommend.
