Description
Patient handling, if carried out improperly can cause needless physical stress and exertion among nurses and caregivers. The physical and financial costs of improper patient handling can be severe. This Manual Handling Healthcare Patient Handling course will assist your workers to recognize the immense risks present in patient handling and how to minimize those risks.
Once the course is completed, you will have learned the benefits of a “no-lift” policy, the most effective way to eliminate or minimize many of the risks associated with patient handling. You’ll have also learned about the various lifting aids and how to use them safely. This course is one part of a 6-part Manual Handling Healthcare series aimed at clinical and non-clinical healthcare workers.
