Physical Intervention
Physical intervention skills may be needed in some workplaces to manage challenging behaviour safely. Depending on the risks faced in the job this can involve anything from avoidance and disengagement skills through to rescue, escorting and holding skills.
This unique physical skills programme that is simple and effective yet lower in risk for the staff using them and the individuals to whom they are applied. The non-aggressive skills help to calm a situation, as they do not use pain to seek compliance. They are taught in a way that enables staff to identify the least aversive options to achieve the objective. Based on simple yet powerful principles men and women confidently apply these skills in a range of environments to protect themselves, their colleagues and service users/customers.
Importantly Maybo's conflict management PI training also examines medical
implications and legal advice on the use of force. PI training at every
level reinforces the need to utilise non-physical strategies as far
as practicable, with physical intervention being a last resort.
Staff will be given the skills to suit their situation and location.
To do this Maybo carries out a training needs analysis before designing
the programme. The programme will be based on the level of risk, employee
and service user considerations and typical problems experienced. It
will generally be split as follows:
• Disengagement: This training examines how staff can reduce the risks
of assault through non physical measures and avoid assault through their
positioning and approach. They then learn how to disengage from the
most common types of assault they can face in their role. This can extend
to coming to the aid of another person and non-restrictive guiding skills.
• Holding: Where the job role may legitimately involve physically escorting
or holding an individual, holds are taught that help to protect staff
and avoid pain or discomfort for the individual. Such techniques may
be required in a variety of frontline roles.
• Additional holding: Where the job role may require holding and restraint
of individuals who are horizontal
• Specialist: For those working in security we have safe non-confrontational
searching advice and training. For roles where a service user can become
particularly aggressive and additional support is needed Maybo will
provide training on the correct and safe use of handcuffs, Maybo's SAFERwrap
or an emergency restraint belt (ERB).
