Evidence-Based Patient Handling - Techniques and Equipment (Paperback)

Providing care and treatment for patients usually requires moving and handling activities, associated with high rates of back injuries for nursing staff. Over the last 20 years a number of guidelines have been published based on professional consensus. Evidence-Based Patient Handling uackles the challenge of producing an evidence base to support clinical practice and is presented in three sections: tasks, equipment and interventions. This book challenges previously held opinions about moving and handling and provides the foundation for future practices.
