EMS - Patient Lifting-Back Injury Prevention

(14 min.) This program is about taking a look at the unusual situations you encounter on a daily basis, to see if we can make your job easier and less likely to cause you an injury. To do this, we have to start at the beginning of your shift. Bear with us because you know the anatomy of the back in a professional manner and we''re certainly not trying to teach physical anatomy, but we do want to make a few points that may help you be more aware of your own personal safety.

Topics included in this safety video are: spinal column, discs, safe lifting technique, using a backboard, safety awareness.

Program comes with a CD-ROM of written materials, including test questions and answers. English title also includes PowerPoint presentation.
