This course has been created for staff working at Thorne Harbour Health.

It will improve your skills and knowledge in safe manual handling.

Our goal is to help all staff prioritise their own safety at work so they can provide the best care to their clients and keep safe from musculoskeletal injuries. We know that to achieve lasting change, along with teaching specific lifting techniques, we also need to instill a deep understanding of how the body works and how an injury occurs so that staff can take this knowledge and apply it to any workplace task.
