Austin Whyte, Senior Nurse in Acute Services

At Weston House and Queensway House we have approximately 100 staff members, of all grades, who receive DMI training. The trainers have always been very thorough, and very person-centred in their approach to our residents, who can display challenging behaviours. The trainers always deliver the training at a level all of our staff members will understand, and they always give them the opportunity to practice and utilise their skills in relation to existing residents which helps to put things into perspective.
