Table of Content:

Step 1 of 6

As a nursing assistant the person has to shift, transfer, and move the patients very often. In the transfer process one should avoid any injury to oneself and the patient. The patient’s skin should be protected during the movement, handling, and transfer process. The injuries caused during the transfer of patients can cause infections and pressure ulcers.

Step 2 of 6

Shearing occurs when the patient’s skin sticks to the surface and the muscles move in the direction of movement. It occurs during sliding in the bed.

Step 3 of 6

Ergonomics is the science of designing a job to fit the worker. This reduces stress on the worker’s body. The use of ergonomics reduces the chances of work related injuries and illness.

Step 4 of 6

Posture means the alignment of head, trunk, arms, and legs with one another. Proper alignment ensures proper functioning and movement of the body with strength and efficiency.

Step 5 of 6

Hence, options A, C, and D are not the correct options.

Step 6 of 6
