Moving and handling people appropriately is an essential part of good care in the community and residential care settings. It is vitally important and a highly complex subject with a myriad of factors to be considered.

Not only are there technical issues related to safe practice, but also maintaining the individual’s dignity and quality of life is paramount.

To find out more, read the Moving and Handling in the Community and Residential Care, a comprehensive guide to aid managers and practitioners, to understand the issues faced and to select appropriate methods of moving and handling that ensure the safest possible environment for the person receiving the care, as well as the staff delivering it.
