Safe Moving & Handling of People in Practice

In this episode of ComplyPlus™ Presents, Dr Richard Dune is joined by Amanda to explore why moving and assisting people safely is about much more than ticking a training box. Drawing on Amanda’s experience as a registered nurse, care manager, and moving and handling trainer, they discuss why poor techniques become normalised, why staff safety matters, and why training needs to reflect the people, equipment, and real risks staff face every day.

They also look at the Train the Trainer model, including why organisations must choose the right people, why practical experience matters, and why confidence alone is not enough. Whether you are a registered manager, trainer, quality lead, or care provider, this episode will help you think more carefully about safer moving and assisting practice and the systems needed to support it.
