    I have been doing this kind of work for years. Don't want them to be on the floor but it's better for you and the client and to reduce injuries.

    I think people are missing the point ... You are not trying to stop them from falling but to minimize the impact on the way down. You cant foght gravity but you can keep the person from hitting their head .....

    ha ha - this is so much better than the british NHS video which instructs you to just push them into the nearest wall so that they can slide down that like a thrown fried egg. omg! Lordy.
    very mobile yet still protects the nurses back - I wouldn't be surprised if the army developed this technique - its excellent!

    In assistant living we do not catch falling residents. Because if someone can not vear weight they should be in skill nursing with a hoyer lift. How do you catch someone over 200 pounds when you only weigh 110? It's humanly impossible .

      Cna student here, they told us that when someone is falling, dont catch the patient but dont either let them fall completely. Guide them to the floor because if you catch them, you are going to fall with them and many reasons.
      And if you let them fall just like that, the patient would get injured. So instead, guide them to the floor and make you they wont get hit with anything.

      I think the concept behind it was,if we as a nurse got injured we would lose our career and the NHS won't pay out.
      I found it a bit uncaring to allow them to fallntobthe floor

      In-home care with one patient you're able to helicopter nurse if need be, maybe never if you're lucky. Big, over-crowded, understaffed hospital? Could be near enough to constant to feel overwhelming.

    If you’re more than 130lbs good and taller than 5’8, good luck being caught. You’re hitting the ground. Just being honest. You’re too heavy to catch and nobody is trying to throw their back out not even big strong men. If we can prevent the fall we will, but on the other hand we aren’t about to throw our backs out to catch a fall or someone too heavy to catch.

  • @jaymorgan.
    @jaymorgan. 4 місяці тому +2

    The patient has the right to fall. I ensure resident safety but if the resident stands up without assistance or they’re just too weak to walk then they shouldn’t walk! Too many are stubborn. The floor is where they will land. If anyone disagrees they are lying.
