We’re receiving great feedback – why not get involved?
Hertfordshire Care Providers Association (HCPA) has launched the StopFalls Campaign, fully funded by Hertfordshire County Council (HCC), with the aim of reducing falls across the county.
“The falls training you provided last month has had a positive impact on my home. Staff are more aware and knowledgeable and have been pre-emptive in managing falls. They have been sharing their knowledge with anyone who would listen. My data shows a reduction in falls for the last 2 weeks. My staff are excited and motivated about new training opportunities. Following the 1-day course two of my staff have been selected and booked to be Champions. So thanks a million for the opportunity and we at Greenacres want you to know that your training saves lives and promotes quality care.”
