Care & Independence Training Event South.

Safe patient moving and handling specialist Care & Independence is inviting local occupational therapists (OTs) to join in with its free training event.

The course content, delivered over a three-and-a-half-hour period, covers sizing-related issues, sling selection, hoist considerations and fitting techniques.

Care & Independence Training Event South will take place on Tuesday 5 July 2022, at the Doubletree by Hilton at Dartford Bridge, Kent, between 9.30am-1pm.

By attending, OTs will understand the risk factors associated with fitting techniques in moving and handling.

Steve Watson, National Sales Assessment Manager with over 25 years’ real-world experience within the industry of solving complex problems and an enviable knowledge of sling equipment, will deliver the event joined by regular circuit presenter and Moving & Handling Specialist Melanie Furness.

Steve commented: “This is a great opportunity to get hands-on practical training alongside theory for any OT or professional responsible for a disabled, elderly or infirm person requiring sling-based care assistance.

“It counts towards your Continued Professional Development – and we’ve got complementary refreshments too!”

A practical session with course handouts will be provided to all delegates.

Places are limited so those interested are encouraged to not delay with booking. Booking can be made by emailing marketing@careandindependence.com or calling 033 012 80808.
