What is Anti Ligature Training?

Anti ligature training educates staff on how to identify and eliminate ligature points, which are potential suicide hazards, in mental health units, hospitals, and other healthcare environments.
The training covers everything from identifying ligature points and implementing strategies to reduce the risk of self-harm to understanding the importance of proper documentation.

Why is Anti Ligature Training Important?

You may have recently seen the Channel 4 Dispatches programme ‘Hospital Undercover: Are Our Wards Safe?‘ where a Dispatches reporter went undercover in Essex Partnership University Trust, you would have seen the numerous attempts at patients trying to kill themselves using ligatures.

But it’s far more common than that.

The growing concern around suicide in mental health settings has prompted clinicians, estates professionals and specifiers to assess ligature risks.

Approximately three-quarters of patients who die by suicide on psychiatric wards do so by hanging/strangulation.

Suicide by hanging is one of the most commonly used suicide methods with a high mortality rate, with one research study suggesting at least a 70 percent success rate for death.

In England, there are around 2000 hanging suicides per year and it is the most commonly used suicide method.

Many of these attempts leave the victim with life changing disabilities.

This is why this course is so important.

The Benefits of Anti Ligature Training

Not only does it help prevent suicide attempts, but it also creates a safer environment for both patients and staff.

By eliminating ligature points, healthcare, care and custodial professionals can focus on providing care to those who need it, without the fear of harm or injury.

Additionally, the training ensures that staff are prepared to deal with any potential incidents that may arise.

Is It A Legal Requirement?

In the UK, it is a legal requirement for all organisations to ensure the health, safety and welfare of everyone in the workplace.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has identified the risk of suicide in the workplace as a priority area, and therefore it is essential that staff are adequately trained to prevent these incidents from occurring.

Ligature Training Is An Ofsted and CQC Requirement

And this is also why Ofsted and CQC inspectors are continually requesting providers to evidence that staff are receiving ligature training to ensure that staff are equipped with the necessary skills and training to enable them to manage self-harm/ligature incidents and save lives.
