Why watch back?
This was an educational webinar providing training and support for carers in acute and hospitals settings, community and social care environments, and emergency responders.
Learning Points Covered:
- Discover what constitutes a “long-lie” fall, and the ongoing impacts they cause to patient health and healthcare organisations.
- Learn about ways the colder winter months can cause more long-lie falls, and therefore pressures on both acute and community care facilities & response teams.
- Explore strategies to prevent and manage falls during the winter, to prevent patient injury and reduce pressure on emergency response teams.
- Take a look at the Raizer Patient Lifting Chairs, as falls response devices that enable single handed lifting in minutes.
- Question & Answer Session
We were joined by the highly experienced Matt Heudebourck-Emmerson, the trust lead for moving & handling and ergonomics at UCLH NHS Trust (University College London Hospitals).
