Residential health care workers have a higher than average chance of sustaining injury at work, more often than not due to incorrect manual handling.
If your staff are not trained in how to keep themselves safe in this regard, may we recommend Our “Aged Care Health & Safety for Carers” which gives training in key aspects of lifting and safe manual handling of patients/residents?
This online training also covers two other important topics regarding Health & Safety for residential care staff - 'Handling Challenging Behaviour' and 'Infection Control'.
