This hospital has a NO LIFT policy and it is expected that you will strictly comply. If you have not had any patient/manual handling instruction from your education provider, you need to let us know.

 

There is a range of equipment available for patient/resident handling.  If you are unfamiliar with this equipment or its location, seek out your preceptor for assistance.

 

Do not attempt to use any equipment you are unfamiliar with on your own. All lifting equipment requires two personnel to operate.
