Patient Handling
Patient handling involves the safe and efficient movement and transfer of patients in healthcare settings to ensure both patient comfort and caregiver safety. Proper patient handling techniques aim to minimize the risk of musculoskeletal injuries among healthcare workers, who often lift, transfer, or reposition patients with varying mobility levels. Training personnel in proper body mechanics and patient handling procedures is essential to prevent injuries and ensure the dignity and comfort of patients. By prioritizing safe patient handling practices, healthcare facilities can improve staff morale, reduce workplace injuries, and maintain high standards of patient care.
