Yeah because they are using people who can move freely fine because when I roll my people I use a chuck under them I criss cross the leg part on the sling to ensure they stay in the sling and I tip back the wheel chair to get them all the way in the wheelchair otherwise they are pretty much falling out of it 15-20 min later which would not be a good thing. 2 people are nice to have but when ur short on staff it is possible. It did however take a lot of practice though and in the beginning a good work out…
I know i feel you i just got a client with one and they didnt tell me. The only instructions i had To go by was needed help in and out bath tub and toilet
Some states consider side rails a restraint. I don't know why but it is what it is. Then add dementia patients to the mix, it's a challenge. Although this video is somewhat accurate, it all depends on the resident's conditions.
This is the correct 0ne that I need for my bedridden husband. I have a different one which is not correct and the Nurse should have ask me which sling do I want.Well GOD BLESS!
Oh, I forgot to tell you as far as I discovered there are two kinds: the one in this video is called a u bend sling. The other one that I discovered is called a mesh sling. If you have an equipment provider tell them you want a u bend sling. It will take a number of weeks I imagine if you do it through an equipment provider. If you do it through Amazon it'll take a few days. God bless you and I hope you have a good day, and I hope you get this message.
You know you cut away too quickly. You say tuck the sling under the patient,you start to tuck but the then suddenly cut away to the next step. My question is exactly how far under the patient did you tuck that slung?! This happens a couple times throughout the video where your moving a bit fast for us... some patients pain levels dont tolerate 2, 3 or more attempts to figure out how far under the patient you tuck a sling... I've spent years being able to transfer my wife in a sitting position and suddenly I have to transfer in a laying position. Suppose I'll find help elsewhere...
I’m having some health issues with my joints, but we had a family trip planned for New York City. This ruclips.net/user/postUgkxuxJwamLFanm476LC5WPeTouyyU1GXomC was perfect! It’s lightweight enough that my friend could carry it up or down stairs when we needed to. (I can walk very short distances) It was comfortable for me to sit in, I would say if you’re super tall it might be a little cramped. I’m 5’1” and the foot rests were the perfect height. This may not be the best one for long term use, you get what you pay for, but for something that fits our budget that gives me accessibility while we deal with my health this was amazing.
One tip..usually when put a patient on wheelchair they always like laying down instead of sitting correctly..just make them sit and pull their pant from behind they will sit correctly
I as an individual, and only for myself insist that people don't cross the straps, because it hurts my testicles. They don't care because it's the way they've been trained. Who knows maybe one day I'll fall out.
This is not the way to turn a patient-by pushing on their arm. It would be more instructive to have an actor to demonstrate a patient who really needs assistance.
God bless all of you catetakers ❤️
This is very helpful for my caregivers. I use this video to train them.
Thank You.
WHY DOES THIS ALWAYS LOOK SO EASY IN VIDEOS BUT NOT IN REAL LIFE
The demonstration subjects roll over so easily. NOT my 93 YO mother!

Also stage performance, especially if you have family members or other nurses watching you while you put the pad under the pt or drive the hoyer.
Example was incorrect. Dead weight is much harder to move.
I’d like to see a video demonstrating how to lift a 230 lb, totally dead weight patient that can’t roll or assist in anyway.
You have to do the rolling. I grab the harness and roll them each direction

You can find just about any sling you want online. I bought one for myself that cost about 60 to $80.

Could this be used to get a patient in and out of a truck that sits high?
Yeah but how to you get the sling out from under the patient once in the wheelchair?
You don't
Great video but the music was louder than the narrator's voice making it difficult to hear

Electric wheelchairs are harder because they are longer and more bulky than standard wheelchairs

Really, you think a wedgie is the way to go? 😮
Poor body mechanics. I would raise the bed high so that Im not bending and injure my back.
Why do youtubers feel they need to play annoying music while they are talking. Esp. in instructional videos. Quit watching after 20 min.

Should you be moving the bed to a higher position so the nurse isn’t bending over?
Wow
