@@VioletaSavin some get paid only $15 an hour and that’s what this whole comment is about. The people that only make $15 an hour when this job consists of hard emotional and physical work. We should get paid WAY more than this. If you haven’t done the job, you wouldn’t know what we are speaking about.

This training should be a mandatory training for family members who help with in home care. My aunt is caring for my grandmother and I can see my aunt really needs this training.
Thank you for this training demonstration it as not only allowed me to work in this environments but also feel confident in my role. I will always come back to these methods if I have forgotten. However, there are certain things we no use due to changes in the companies policies and procedures.
Thanks for the Informative Video. Though we All Know the Necessity of Cleanliness... I've Been to a LOT of Facilities, and Handwashing is Simply a Joke.
Very very Educative and useful for a caregiver to follow the steps of transferring a patient from a wheelchair chair .Electrical equipment. etc etc to prevent accidents leading to injuries .if u follow all the rules and regulations of transferring the patients.and proper techniques needed to prevent your own pain etc etc.and you therefore consider all factors of transferring a victim.and you should be trained with devices before you start using them on victims
Thank you very much for this video. However you did not demostrate as to how you transfer an elderly, immobile person from wheelchair to and off bed. As far as I am aware we don't have the lift facility where I live. Looking forward
They weren't wearing gloves, they didn't show how to clean his private area,you don't dress a patient in the middle of a bath,that's last. They didn't use deodorant, lotion,and they didn't put fresh linen on the bed
@@glorialowe8712 Thank you. At least you take the time to point out whát's not good about the video. Good to know your advice. You've got interesting points.
Use of 'slide sheets' (strong silky synthetic sheets) rolled out beneath the person, make transferring patients/clients from trolley to bed and back, up the bed, from side for e.g. - much easier and safer for all involved. Also use of 'hover mats' for bariatric (100kgs +) patients/clients helps further reduce risk of injury.
These techniques are a bit different from what I’m learning in my CNA course right now. Example would be instead of putting my knees against the residents knees, my instructor told us to put one leg between the resident in case they fall. I like both methods, I wouldn’t have thought of the knee method to prevent them from buckling their knee when standing nor waiting a few minutes before asking the resident to stand up from the bed.
