The Safe Patient Handling and Mobility (SPHM) Standards were
published in 2013 to fulfil a need for national guidelines to
reduce the risks of injuries and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs)
of healthcare workers. Significant strides have been made in SPHM
research, education, training, and advocacy, since the first
edition of the Standards. But patient handling and mobility-related
injury rates have not been reduced significantly. This means that
our work is not done. One goal of the second edition is to
communicate the continued need for standardized SPHM programs and
resources and re-ignite SPHM discussions and improvements. There
are eight overarching standards featured in the book, each one
outlined and explained in detail: Culture of Safety Sustainable
SPHM Program Ergonomic Design Principles SPHM Technology Education,
Training, and Maintaining Competence Patient-Centered Assessment
Reasonable Accommodation and Post-Injury Return to Work
Comprehensive Evaluation System Nurses and all other healthcare
workers must continue to use technology, do research, and discover
new and unique ways to promote the value of SPHM to keep themselves
and their patients safe.
