The conference aims to bring together practitioners from multi disciplinary backgrounds who are involved in moving and handling people.
Any healthcare worker involved in the assessment, equipment recommendation and moving and handling of people in NHS Acute Care, Community Care, Private Healthcare, Social Care, Charities, Nursing & Independent Care Homes and Hospices as well as a range of other professions.
In order to provide an effective advisory and training service you need to know what changes are likely to happen and affect your work and in order to plan you must have knowledge. Therefore, this is ‘the must attend date for your diary’ and CPD if you are involved in any of the following:
- Providing moving & handling training to a range of different workers across the healthcare sector in assessment, back care and prevention of work related musculoskeletal disorders
- Writing policies and guidelines; bringing legislation & guidance together to develop safer systems of work for organisations and workers
- Undertaking moving and handling risk assessments and providing specialised advice
Delegates attending Moving & Handling People 2012 will also receive one year’s free access to an information portal of equipment for moving & handling people.
