Patient Handling

Caring for patients in a healthcare environment can require nurses, aides, orderlies and other caregivers to lift as much as four thousand pounds during a typical shift. No wonder they're twice as likely to suffer musculoskeletal injuries on the job as employees in other industries. But these injuries don't have to occur.

  • Patient handling and caregiver injuries.
  • Algorithms, patient assessment and body mechanics.
  • Repostioning a patient in bed.
  • Performing patient transfer tasks safely.
