Health and Social Care workers are statistically at a high risk of workplace injury. Help your staff avoid this through effective training. A HSE report on the industry in 2014/15 indicated that each year there are 86,000 self reported non-fatal workplace injuries, with 27% of these involving lifting and handling. What’s more, workplace injury leads to around 0.7 million lost working days. A third of all ‘over 7 day’ absences are caused by lifting and handling.
We are members of NASHiCS - the National Association of Safety and Health in Care Services and strive to work with Care Providers to create solutions to their training needs.
Benefits of using a Ruth Lee Training Manikin.
One of the UK’s largest care homes recently bought over 100 patient handling manikins - one for each of their sites across the country. They plan to use the manikins for emergency evacuation planning and we were impressed by their commitment to the best possible training for their teams.
