I feel that it would’ve been okay as a refresher course but not for someone just starting out in health care. It was not informative enough, if questions were brought forward they were shut down quite quickly if it was a different opinion or scenario to the trainer. The practical was not informative, people that had NEVER used the hoist before instead of being shown 1-1 and talked through it was just put as the client in the hoist, was done in groups of 4 while. The trainer went to the back of the room or was talking to people sat watching. We were shown a slides sheet for all of 15 seconds, not spoken or shown how to use it to move patients and no one was allowed to practice with it. We were not shown or spoken to about all different slings, how to ensure you have the right sling to fit the patient. Luckily I have been in care since leaving college and have had very in depth and good training and have a lot of experience so I know good practice but if I was new to care and that was all my training on manual handling and two slides in safeguarding etc then I would not feel confident and would request more training with a different provider.
This course is a complete joke. One slide per ‘subject’ for example safeguarding, no scenarios, incorrect information conveyed. Random info on learning disabilities no apparently related to course learning outcomes. The trainer belittled or shut down anyone who expressed an opinion different to hers. Unsafe hoist demonstration and no other manual Handling demonstrated or discussed. Unsafe CPR training. If this was the only training that someone received they would be a risk to themselves and others with manual handling and BLS
Satisfactory, well understood and educative, the trainer was good, he demonstrated all the practical aspects and the class was so lively.
