PHW-ITT-56611 - DELIVERY OF MANUAL HANDLING TRAINING

Description

Moving and Handling training is mandated in line with the All Wales Manual Handling Training Passport and the level of which will depend on the role and responsibilities of staff groups. All colleagues must complete module A, which is offered via a national e-learning package, however, Public Health Wales has a number of staff across Wales with responsibilities for moving and handling inanimate loads (module B – which usually includes the outcomes of Module A) and supporting service users in laying /sitting/standing/walking positions (module C).Public Health Wales is looking for skilled and qualified trainers to deliver these modules throughout the 2024/2025 operational year, ending on 31st March 2025 with the option of ending the contract for 2025/2026 and 2026/2027.Throughout the 2024/25 operational year, we need to provide up to 40 sessions of manual handling training across Wales; to be trained between now and the end of March 2025.Just over half of staff requiring training are based in South East Wales, largely around Cardiff/Treforest/Llantrisant; a quarter in North Wales and the same in West Wales (Swansea to Carmarthen).
