Focus group for AACE National Ambulance Violence Prevention and Reduction Hub

Have your say on staff training by informing the design of a new, bespoke national training program for ambulance colleagues in managing challenging situations.

AACE would like to invite you to join one of our scheduled focus groups to help shape the development of a training program which provides additional skills and guidance on situations where you may need to hold or restrict a patient's movement or freedom while you provide essential treatment or prevent them or yourself from coming to harm.

The information you provide is vital to ensure the relevance and effectiveness of the program, therefore we are really keen to hear about your experiences, the challenges you face in your day to day work, thoughts and ideas and any feedback you may have. The focus groups will be facilitated via Microsoft Teams by the Association of Ambulance Chief Executives (AACE) and subject matter experts Maybo lasting no longer than 90 minutes.

Dates for the focus group sessions are as follows:

5th September at 2pm

8th September at 10.30am

11th September at 10.30am

14th September at 2pm

For further information and to register your interest in one of the following focus groups, please contact clare.barnham@aace.org.uk.
