Livewell Southwest Academy

Livewell Southwest Academy provides first class Health, Social Care, Mental Health and mandatory training in Plymouth and the surrounding areas.  We can deliver across Devon and Cornwall and virtually across England. Our specialist trainers have significant clinical experience, as well as academic knowledge, ensuring you receive thorough, relevant and high quality training. Essential and clinical training can be delivered face to face, but to make sure we keep our trainers and delegates safe, we have moved as many courses virtual as possible. Now, more than ever, it is important not to put your training needs in a box and leave it until 'normality' resumes. Mental health and suicide is on the increase, patients still need appropriate care and your staff still need to be competent in basic, mandatory training. 

Whether you are starting your career or want to develop your knowledge and skills, our knowledgeable trainers bring years of both academic and practical clinical experience to your training sessions.

From our fully-equipped, dedicated training facility in Plymouth, we offer a wide variety of accredited courses, specialist training, professional development, mandatory training and refresher updates; venepuncture, child protection, ear care, physical intervention, leadership and management and many more, all in line with current best practice and national guidelines.

Take the hassle out of training and accreditation

All our courses and training materials are accredited where appropriate, quality assured and externally assessed, giving you confidence that the training you receive is up to date and meets all relevant standards. The Academy offers a one stop shop for Health Professionals, providing a range of mandatory and essential training required to deliver safe, high quality care. Courses are run frequently with plenty of dates available, ensuring you will always be compliant with relevant standards. Requirements for mandatory update training change from time to time, but as a member of the Livewell Southwest Academy, if you have undertaken mandatory training with us, you will receive automatic reminders when refresher courses are due, taking the hassle away from remembering to remain compliant.
