Employee/Management issues and work place issues
As a nursing student, Angie learned the proper handling of patients in her fundamentals course. During clinical rotation, Angie is assigned a patient with left-sided weakness related to a stroke and dementia. She reviews her notes on positioning, transferring, and handling a patient with musculoskeletal weakness. When entering the patient’s room, Angie finds the patient halfway out of bed. She rushes to assist the patient to sit and immediately afterward feels a sharp pain in her back. Subsequently, Angie has a herniated lumbar disk and is unable to continue nursing school.
How should Angie have approached moving the patient?
What did Angie do correctly in this situation?
Explain why back problems are the number-one cause of nurse injuries and describe the subsequent effects on nursing care.
