Our interactive, classroom-based course provides learners with an understanding of their responsibilities as responders to strangulation or ligature injuries. They will be able to identify injury patterns from ligatures, follow first aid procedures for first responders and preserve the scene for forensic examination, as well as safely storing a ligature knife.
Through trainer-led demonstrations and practical competency assessments where learners will be required to demonstrate they can confidently and safely use a ligature knife, they will gain the ability to act effectively under pressure.
