manual handling training for carers

Pugwash · 2011-06-02T23:05:14+0000

Does anyone know if there is an organisation within easy reach of ED that does a basic manual handling course for carers? A relative is applying for paid carers positions and has been advised that before any agency takes him on, they prefer him to have a manual handling certificate .(It saves them paying for the course) From what I gather this will possibly involve correct way to help people from a chair, a bed and support them mobilising and may cover hoist transfers. Relative is on job seekers allowance, so course should not be too expensive and produce a professionally recognised manual handling certificate

  Property is theft. It should belong to them.

  Stepped out of my garden on Underhill Road (neighbours have overgrown bushes so visibility is very poor) just as a cyclist on an electric bike - not a Lime bike but clearly his own bike - whizzed past on the pavement shouting expletives at a car that was not going fast enough over the speed bumps for the cyclist's liking. If I had been half a second earlier, with my dog, I or the dog would have been seriously injured as he was going full pelt. He had on the lycra and a helmet. No apology or even acknowledgment.
