RRN Level 3 (R) - Positive Behaviour Support & Physical Interventions - Refresher Reviews

Good training and trainer

I feel this is effective. I am happy to use these skills within my own practice and rely on these when it is needed.

I felt the trainer provided a very enthusiastic and energetic presence to the course which always makes it much more engaging, Amy was also able to answer our questions well to the best of her ability and was happy to discuss scenarios. The training as a whole I don't believe to be best suited to the needs of our job roles/ the homes we work in. The course provides us with the basic skills/moves to use however, I believe this course should be undertaken within individual home environments while considering individual risks of young people/common behaviours they may display. During the course today many discussions were held about situations we have been in within our home whereby the holds simply wouldn't have been able to keep the young person and staff free from harm and therefor these holds would need to be adapted to keep the young person safe in the moment. A empty large room which is where we do this course does not replicate or prepare staff for real life situations, for example performing a seated PI on three upright chairs is likely to never occur within the home. A more likely situation would be a seated hold on a sofa with bouncy cushions falling off or a bed with a mattress moving. I would suggest as a minimum sofas to be used within this training. Happy to discuss this further.

Very useful and informative. However questions 2 and 18 were frustrating as while the intended correct answer was obvious both answers could be feasibly correct

It's refreshing and educative. It's very relevant to my job specification.

Great to refresh all strategies

Great to have a refresher course to remind us of what techniques we can use should we need them.

Great and informative good demonstration

the course overall was good and its content was well structured, i think the trainer was engaging and made the day course interesting as well being able to answer questions for us. i feel that the material is enough to educate us but i do still feel that some breakaways are not included or do not offer appropriate safety, such as the rear naked choke.

I liked the interactive parts and discussions. I struggle with just lots of PowerPoint slides
