Moving and handling people safely

This self-assessment helps you reflect on your confidence with moving and handling people safely. It supports learning, supervision and discussion. It does not confirm competence. It does not replace formal training, observed practice, employer checks, professional judgement or local policy. Moving and handling can carry risk. If you score 1 or 2 on any statement, review your training and local procedures. Speak with your manager, supervisor or relevant senior person before carrying out related tasks independently.
