    Maybo sets the benchmark for training in reducing and managing conflict and clinically related challenging behaviours. Our comprehensive training aims to help develop awareness and safer working practices in order to create positive and safer environments for patients and staff.

    Award-winning training that creates long-lasting organisational change

    Healthcare and Hospital staff can find themselves subject to challenging behaviour due to a patient, or service user, acting unpredictably due to a clinically related or mental health issue, such as dementia.

    Maybo provides staff with the skills and confidence to de-escalate and manage challenging behaviours that represent a risk to safety.

    We have played an important role in developing guidance on the prevention and management of clinical assaults within the NHS (UK) and healthcare industry, as well as the use of physical interventions by security personnel operating in both public and private healthcare settings.

    Our training aligns with international best practice from the British Institute for Learning Disabilities, NHS Protect, Department for Health and Social Care, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, Skills for Health, and Royal College of Nursing, the Nursing and Midwifery Council and Restraint Reduction Network.

    Our physical skills are proven to be safe, gentle and low arousal when required as a last resort.

    • The training design was based on a comprehensive Training Needs Analysis informed by a bespoke staff survey and review of incidents. It has been an incredibly thorough and risk/evidence-based approach. Evaluation of this training by security and clinical staff has been very positive.

    • The training package was facilitated clearly, concisely and in an easy to understand way. The trainer was engaging and knowledgeable of the course content and catered for the diverse group of learners really well. The trainer kept us on track and encouraged everyone to engage and bring their own experiences. We all had a fabulous week.

    • Please make it known that the whole team had nothing but praise for the trainer and that even the “old hands” found it very stimulating as he raised issues in a very understandable way. May I comment that as a general rule, I have never known of any candidates coming away without having gained a lot from these refresher courses.

    • Very happy with Maybo content and back-up services. I like how the content is aimed at the majority of staff and not just high end situations. The session content and layout of the presentations are a big improvement on previous training packages.

    • Maybo has great content relevant to hospital and health services. Experienced trainers were able to take-away some excellent strategies that can be delivered in such a way that feels comfortable and natural. The Maybo trainer was patient and informative and this was appreciated. Quality course/quality trainer.

    • May I say a big thank you for the Maybo violence and aggression course for the ITU nurses. I attended the course today and it was excellent. I think the staff would all agree that the knowledge and skills taught will be hugely beneficial, but in addition, it was a great team-building exercise too. I feel it is imperative that all our ITU nurses attend this course.
