About this event
The Ultimate Hands-On Training Experience
Real care doesn’t happen in theory — it happens in the moment.That’s why we’ve created something completely different.
The Free the Jeenie Escape Room is a dynamic, scenario-based training experience that blends clinical reasoning, practical skills, and high-pressure decision-making into one unforgettable session.
Set inside our fully equipped Centre for Excellence, you’ll move through a series of immersive, hands-on care challenges designed to test your teamwork, sharpen your thinking, and build confidence in the skills that matter most.
Learn by Doing Not Watching
This is not a sit-and-listen session. It’s an opportunity to get truly involved — to assess, plan, lift, move, turn, and respond to what’s happening around you.
You’ll work as a team through realistic environments that replicate the complexity of real care — including confined spaces, bedroom and bathroom setups, tight stairwells, ward environments, and bariatric care zones.
What You’ll Cover
- Risk assessment → Make quick, confident decisions with real-world consequences at stake.
- Evacuation planning → Build safe, practical plans for urgent moves in confined and pressured settings.
- In-bed care and repositioning → Learn safe, respectful repositioning strategies using effective tools and team communication.
- Flat lifting and slide sheet handling→ Master friction-reducing techniques to move patients without stress or strain.
- Seating assessments and chair setup→ Set up chairs to fit the person, not just the equipment.
- Sling selection and hoisting→ Choose, fit, and apply slings correctly with full safety and dignity.
- Bariatric patient care in realistic settings→ Work with real-world weight, space, and complexity — not theoretical numbers.
- Mobility scoring and safe discharge planning→ Use scoring tools to track progress and plan for safe patient movement and discharge.
Who Is the Challenge For?
- Care teams looking for a fresh team-building CPD opportunity
- Hospitals, social care providers, and training leads seeking hands-on skill reinforcement
- Individual carers, nurses, manual handling leads, and OTs wanting to test and grow their confidence in a practical setting
Finish with Confidence & Lunch
After completing the challenge, your team will enjoy a free lunch and exclusive open access to the Jeenie Centre for the rest of the day.
Use the time to:
- Explore our wide range of equipment
- Practice newly learned techniques
- Ask questions
- Build confidence
- And have space to think freely, without pressure
