The course was amazing, I was very nervous to attend this as it is very new to me! But the trainer made me feel really comfortable and was very knowledgeable. I feel so much more confident going into my new job role!! Really nice guy and brilliant at his job!

Course was excellent and essential for the staff working with vulnerable patients. It really helped to understand the best skills required to keep the patient and the staff safe. The presentation skills of the mentor was excellent.

Thank you so much Kirstie- today has been very insightful and valuable. This training will have a significant impact on my practice as a nurse in ED, it will help to feel more confident in difficult situations at work and out of work too! The real life examples from Kirstie were helpful to put things into perspective and context. Thank you, if only all staff in ED could have this training it would make a huge difference to staff morale, and confidence

FAQs

Please find our most frequently asked questions here – however, if you need any more information, please call our team on 01159 704 811

Is this course the same as MAPA or PMVA?

Yes. Managing Actual or Potential Aggression (MAPA) and Preventing & Managing Violence and Aggression (PMVA) are acronyms used to describe behaviour management and physical intervention courses. We don’t use an acronym but the theory and physical skills are an equivalent and equip staff with similar skills. Physical skills taught will be based on a Training Needs Analysis.

Is the training certified by Bild-ACT against the RRN Training Standards?

Yes. We were one of the first organisations to gain Bild-ACT certification and were part of the CQC advisory group for the ‘Out of Sight Who Cares? Review of Restraint, Seclusion and Segregation.’ We were the first commercial training provider to have an Affiliate Organisation (Train the Trainer) model approved. Even before certification became mandatory we were voluntarily accredited under the Bild PITAS scheme and code of practice for teaching physical interventions. You can view our Bild-ACT certificate here. (Insert link)

Do you have to have mandatory certified training?

Our RRN approved, Bild-ACT certified courses meet the highest national training standards for teaching physical interventions. They are not mandatory in all settings and we can offer non-certified courses that meet the needs of sectors that require shorter courses or different content. We strive to always offer high quality training and will work with you to make sure that any course we deliver meets the needs of your organisation.

Can this course be delivered in one day?

If your organisation can evidence prior learning that meets Standard 2.5 of the RRN Training Standards, you can complete Level 2 as a one-day course. Prior learning may include courses such as Positive Behaviour Support, mental health, trauma-informed care and managing challenging behaviour training totalling 6 hours. Please talk to us as we will work with you to deliver the training in the way that best meets the needs of your organisation.
