The new ‘AACE Restrictive Interventions Training’ programme is evidence based, adopts a human rights and restraint reduction approach, and has been developed exclusively to meet the unique needs of the national ambulance sector.
 
The programme was launched in January 2024 and is available to all NHS Ambulance Services in the United Kingdom. It consists of two trainer-led classroom modules; Guiding Skills, and Restrictive Skills. 

The Programme is designed to be delivered over six contact learning hours in a classroom environment and an operational ambulance or ambulance simulation facility to groups of up to 12 people at a time and by a Trainer who has successfully completed the associated Train-the-Trainer Programme.

Trainers can access the resources that support each module below:
