One of the top occupational hazards for health care professionals might surprise you. Beyond the more obvious biological or stress-related or chemical dangers, health care workers often face ergonomic hazards from improper patient transfers.
Transferring a person in and out of a wheelchair, gurney or bed can put undue stress on the back, arms and shoulders; it can put the patient in danger as well.
Learning the correct way to transfer a patient will prevent undue wear and tear on your body and will keep patients as safe and comfortable as possible.
