Respect offers a range of accredited training courses to help individuals and organisations to manage and understand behaviours of concern.
Participants will receive an RRN recognised certificate on successful completion of the courses.
While the information detailed here provides an overview of the training we can provide, it’s important to us that our courses are right for you. That’s why our dedicated team will happily work with you to design a tailored package specific to the needs of your organisation.
In addition to our comprehensive content, we have a range of modules to ensure that our courses are always tailored to the specific needs of the services you offer and the individuals you support.
All of our training is delivered by specialist Trainers with extensive experience and can be delivered at your premises, a venue of choice or at our training facilities in Grimsby. A warm North East Lincolnshire welcome awaits.
We believe that training should be interactive, engaging and thought-provoking. Here are some examples of what we can deliver for you:
• The reasons why people may display behaviours of concern – every behaviour serves a purpose
• Practical tools to support positive person-centred care
• Practical, long, medium and short-term individual specific prevention strategies
• Physical intervention and release techniques.
Once we’ve delivered our training to you, we don’t just pack up and walk away. We’re here to fully support your organisation with day-to-day advice and guidance. There’s no extra charge for this, it’s all included in what we offer.
