MTAC offer a range of training options based on extensive experience working within the industry.
Restraint Training
For organisations that work with individuals that can present as a
potential harm to others we offer specialised restraint courses. This
can include single-staff and multiple-staff techniques.
Training includes de-escalation skills.
All interventions involving restraints will be limited by the service setting and the legal frameworks that apply to such a setting. Services will need to ensure they are legally able to use restraint within their service.
MTAC’s consulting will assist in establishing a set of guidelines for the use of restraints as determined by their suitability for your service or organisation.
The training offered is usually the outcome of consulting work, whereby custom programs can be constructed to meet specific client groups.
- Security Personnel.
- Residential Mental Health.
- Intellectual Disability Services.
- and organisations that deal with challenging and aggressive behaviour from children.
