Manual Handling Training for Brisbane Support Workers

Manual handling in disability and aged care can involve more than simply lifting an object. Support workers may need to assist a person with movement, positioning or transfers while considering individual needs, workplace procedures and available equipment.

Effective training helps workers recognise potential hazards, assess the task before beginning and understand safer ways to approach people-handling activities.

Depending on the verified Aventus Health Care course scope, this section can detail training in areas such as:

  • identifying manual handling hazards and risks
  • applying safer movement and handling principles
  • assisting with common mobility and transfer tasks
  • understanding the appropriate use of relevant handling equipment
  • reducing unnecessary physical strain during support tasks
  • maintaining dignity and respectful support during people handling.

Why Is Manual Handling Training Important for Support Workers?

Support work can involve physically demanding tasks and complex individual needs. Manual handling training helps workers build awareness of risks before undertaking a task and understand when equipment, environmental changes or additional assistance may be appropriate.

For people receiving support, appropriate handling practices are also about comfort, dignity and individualised assistance – not simply completing a movement or transfer.
