Moving a Patient Up in Bed with a One Person Assist

I am not a nurse, but because of you video I was able to move my husband up in his bed. His health is going down, but after watching you videos I am able to do things better now and I do not hurt him or myself. Thank you so much.

I’m a caregiver and I love my job, and I’ve been struggling with lifting my patient and maneuvering him. This has made it much more easier thank you so much!😊

Ladies, I searched the internet tonight because I was having great difficulty helping my mother in bed. This is a game changer! It works! Thank you so much!

There are on the market people moving and handling equipment called slide sheets that are ideal for that job the slippery slides are put under the client, it makes that manoeuvre very effortless, and does not shear the vulnerable areas of the skin. My worry would be for the caregivers’s back as there is a lot of forces going through there when pulling a whole persons body weight.

I’m a nursing assistant and I’ve used this because I can’t always get help when I need it. It’s so easy to do when you don’t have help.

Great video for one-person repositioning Nancy! One additional thing I like to teach people is to give yourself a very wide base (legs 2-3 ft apart) before pulling your loved one up in bed and use leg muscles to do the work - bend from the hips rather than leaning over with your back. I almost "squat low" to pull someone up.

Thank you very much.. I started getting pinched/sciatica w/ nerves in my lower back for trying different positions incorrectly. I am so happy I found your channel.

Watching you both is so amazing for me. I’m a nursing student and this is so incredibly helpful.

This is so helpful not to injure my back and wow you are strong! Thank you!

I'm a Canadian personal support worker student and I found this very useful!!🥰

I also like that you guys practiced as one person cause in my job it’s just one person who is expected to lift him.
