How will our carers benefit from SHADES training?

  • Carers and staff will feel more confident when dealing with difficult and potentially dangerous situations.
  • A range of de-escalation skills and strategies which should reduce the need for physical intervention.
  • It enhances their relationship with the child/children in their care.
  • It makes them feel valued and supported within the organisation.
  • It gives an insight into the behaviour of the child/children in their care.
  • It teaches physical intervention techniques, which are safe for both the child and the adult.
  • It allows them to hear and share information, which in turn helps them to feel less isolated or guilty.
  • It gives an insight into their own behaviour/responses.
  • It can be used towards NVQ Level 3
  • It is fun!
