I enjoy the course but 4days are quite intensive with all the information that we have to take in.
The course was very informative and productive I learnt many different things that I can implement in work when working with young people.
Dea's explanations were great, I just missed a bit more time to practice the holds.
Response: Hi Constanza, I'm glad you found the training good and Dea's explanations great. We always say that it is important to continue to practice physical skills with colleagues after the training to ensure you can recall them, so you can ensure this practice continues after the initial training
The course was very much useful to me because the trainer emphasized on how much we should ask ourselves why are the service user behaving in a certain. Seeing the reason why would help understand what they going through and react in a caring way to keep them safe. I learnt the possible ways to de-escalate the service user back to their baseline. It was a wonderful experience learning this course.
Excellent instruction and felt comfortable with all the techniques
Response: Hi Arthur. Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the course delivery and you felt comfortable with the content.
Course could have contained some stuff about communication and processing time with regards to PBS as I feel like that is overlooked but otherwise really informative and have enjoyed Sherwood courses in the past
Could do with a trigger warning as I found elements very challenging and increased my own anxiety. Trainer was very informative and helpful and his personal insights and analogies
The course was very informative and I found it very engaging and hands on. The slight downside was not being able to execute more accurate life scenarios (because of our environment) Overall great course with determined trainers.
I thought the course was excellent overall - content, resources, trainer/delivery, relevance, usefulness - all excellent. So much simpler and easier to learn than the likes of TEAM TEACH and the balance of theory and practical really supported the ethos of minimising restrictive practice. Hannah’s delivery is superb, a great balance of lightness and seriousness, which I feel allowed her to engage attendees that were anxious and previously hesitant. In terms of what can be improved, the presentation is a bit sterile/flat with a heavy emphasis on text. Many people in this industry are visual learners and the abundance of text, along with graphics that are very similar throughout makes it difficult to distinguish one slide from another and retain/recall that info. Varying that and introducing more graphics would really help (I think). Whilst I feel the model is so much more usable and applicable that TEAM TEACH, the flip side of being simpler (and less comprehensive) is that I’m left wondering if it covers all bases. I’m hopeful that’s because it’s the first time I’ve done it though and I just need to let it bed in.
