Physical Intervention Training for FGH Security Ltd

Physical intervention skills may be needed in some workplaces to manage challenging behaviour safely. The management of FGH Security Ltd identified a training need for their employees who regularly  faced people with challenging behaviour towards them.

Tactical Training Services Ltd then conducted a training needs analysis that highlighted a need for physical skills to be shown to their staff, and rolled out physical intervention training accredited by Maybo & City & Guilds. The training consisted of avoidance and disengagement skills through to rescue, escorting and holding skills.

The management of VLL also identified a training need for their security officers who regularly faced people with challenging behaviour towards them in a hospital environment.

Tactical Training Services Ltd then conducted a training needs analysis that highlighted a need for conflict management and physical skills to be shown to their staff, and rolled out an ongoing training programme of conflict management & physical intervention training. The training consisted of how to prevent and defuse conflict, reduce risk avoidance and disengagement skills through to rescue, escorting and holding skills.

Disengagement: This training examined how staff can reduce the risks of assault through non physical measures and avoid assault through their positioning and approach. The staff then learned how to disengage from the most common types of assault they could face in their role.

Client Feedback

I first contacted Tactical Training Services because I knew that the MD (Dave) had such a good reputation in the area as a Front Line Door Supervisor himself. TTS has always been adaptable to my complete training needs and we have had several tailor-made courses provided to us. Our full management team went on a risk assessments training course our confidence has grown immensely and security risk assessments is now an extra service we offer to our clients. TTS has made training sessions for our door supervisors and security guards a lot more enjoyable and recent training sessions have not only made our staff more knowledgeable but also acted as a team building session. Morale has definitely increased thanks to the extra training TTS has provided and consequently staff turnover has reduced.
I know that when I send my staff to get training by Dave what they learn is relevant, fun and good value for money, (Peter Harrison M.D of FGH Security Ltd) 2009.

Control & Restraint

As a member of the Security Department for Vita Lend Lease at Burnley General Hospital I personally found Dave Pattinson's training in Control & Restraint, CCTV , Weapon's awareness and Supervisor / Manager training very informative. Dave was very clear and precise and ensured that every person attending the course had fully understood the laws and practicality connected with each course. (Graham Cook CCTV & Security Supervisor VLL) 2009.

Control & Restraint, Weapons Awareness, Health & Safety and Supervisors’ Skills Course

If you are looking for a training course that is exciting, challenging, innovative and most importantly highly effective then I can only recommend Dave Pattison. I myself have been on a number of courses presented by Dave which have ranged from Control and Restraint and Weapons Awareness Training through to Health & Safety and a Supervisors' Skills Course. With Dave's vast experience and knowledge each of these are delivered in an engaging and motivational manner so that once completed you take away with you an array of different skills and methods that you are able to transfer easily into your working life. To sum up - excellent! (Eleanor Berridge Security Shift Supervisor Burnley General Hospital VLL) 2009.
