Ligature Training Manikin
Tragically, death by suicide is an increasing problem in society, and this manikin has been designed to help professionals train to face this situation effectively and sensitively. In high-risk environments or institutions which house vulnerable people, such as Mental Health Hospitals, Police Stations and Prisons, suicide by hanging is tragically high. Staff who might face and need to manage suicides and self-harm regularly need the correct training to operate this safely. Training includes using a hook knife to release a ligature properly. This specialist manikin has been designed to allow teams to learn to effectively and sensitively manage this situation.…
