AI summary of reviews

Consistently knowledgeable, patient and engaging trainers are the provider’s clearest strength, making complex theory accessible through humour, real-life examples, discussion and hands-on practice. Attendees value the safe, supportive atmosphere, clear explanations, thoughtful adaptations and opportunities to ask questions and repeat techniques until confident. Courses are generally well structured and paced, with useful breaks, and learning transfers directly to workplace practice and everyday situations; a few attendees find some sessions longer or more repetitive than necessary.

The session was very interactive and provided lots of opportunities to practice the holders. The trainer gave back constant feedback to ensure holds were being completed with the correct technique. Trainer included everyone in the session

No notes Ben is an amazing trainer. Clinical restraint is relevant to all staff and now I feel like I have the tools to take back to the ward and safe hold appropriately

Very interactive. Really tested us all and put us to the test. Very hands on. Made us think about different situations. Was very helpful for what we may come across in practice.

Response: Thank you for your feedback, Natasha. We are delighted to hear you found the session interactive and hands-on, with opportunities to think through real situations. It’s great to know the training feels helpful for what you may come across in practice, and we hope completing the course continues to support you within your role.

Very informative and supportive environment. Feel a lot more confident going forward with de escalation and then as a last resort safe holds.

Ben was through with his training, stopping to reshow people if they needed another demonstration. Made sure everyone was confident with each move before moving onto the next one. I feel much more confident and competent to do this should I have to

Ben directed us through Day 3 of the course, and tailored it towards our needs as paediatric nurses and health care staff. This was excellent for patients who demonstrate behaviour that can be challenging, but also for de-escalation for patients and their families, especially for patients who may require nursing interventions with restraints.

Response: Thank you for your feedback, Claire. We’re delighted that Ben tailored Day 3 to your paediatric nursing role and that the training supported your understanding of approaches to behaviour that can be challenging and de-escalation with patients and families. We hope that completing the course will further support you within your role.

Really enjoyed the day. It is really good to know the best way of holding patients safely in order to keep them safe as well as yourself. Ben is really knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
