Our Approach to Becoming a Personal Safety Instructor

At UK Patient Care, our courses are tailored to reflect the unique needs and values of our clients, focusing on both violence prevention and escape techniques. We emphasise situational awareness, positive behaviour management, and de-escalation techniques to ensure a safe and ethical training experience.
The course is designed for those who already have some experience of delivering training but can also be tailored towards those who have had no or little training experience by including content on:
N
The training cycle
N
Creating SMARTER aims and outcomes
N
Designing lesson plans
N
Training methods
N
Assessing learning
N
Evaluating training
The course is taught in a student-centred interactive style and we would expect delegates to do the same in all their courses. The disengagement techniques taught are easy to teach, effective, and don’t rely on size, strength, or athleticism. The main aim is to use simple movements which can be repeated under pressure in order to get away from the situation.

The assessment process is fair, non-threatening and gives the delegates opportunity to prepare for their courses. Delegates are required to run a short training session which is observed by the trainer and their peers. Feedback is delivered at the conclusion of the micro teach and if the delegate, or trainer feels unhappy with their session, they have the opportunity to deliver it again.
