Lifting for Caregivers

Be confident and learn how to protect yourself while helping others.
Caregiver-lifting techniques include client handling for seated and bed repositioning as well as the most common, non-mechanized, caregiver assisted transfers: squat pivot, stand pivot (with and without a walker), getting in and out of bed, strong side transfers, sliding board and two-person assisted. Transfers applicable to most areas of a home or facility.
