Prevention and management of Violence and Aggression training (PMVA)

This advanced course, spanning three to five days, is tailored for high-risk environments where staff encounter elevated levels of aggression. It delves into six key stages for managing aggression and challenging behaviour, covering understanding causes, reducing escalation, de-escalation tactics, both physical and non-physical defensive strategies, guiding techniques, and control and restraint/safer-holding techniques.

The course targets healthcare novices, aiming to familiarise them with essential skills required in the field. Participants will learn chest compression and rescue breathing (CPR), safe operation of automated external defibrillators, and placing unconscious breathing victims in the recovery position.

This course provides essential training for safely and effectively transporting individuals and items within various settings. Designed to meet regulatory standards, the course equips participants with practical skills and knowledge to minimise the risk of injury and ensure compliance with health and safety regulations. Through hands-on instruction and theoretical modules, attendees learn proper lifting techniques, equipment usage, risk assessment, and the importance of ergonomics.
