Occupational Therapy

[lltrf]

I fell asleep watching this..

[cvsmithot1]

By the way DO NOT transfer a patient in socks unless they have anti skid grips on the bottom--sure are preferable. That is unless you want to lose the patient on the floor and maybe your job as well.

[cvsmithot1]

You should use experienced therapists demonstrate with a real patient, not one who is able bodied. Also these students are not instructing the patient how to assist by bending forward, etc. By the way OT is not PT so quit bashing another discipline. If you are by any chance a PT you are gonna have a hard time working as a team member. I have a feeling you are a PT wannabe who didn't make it. Doctors do care if a person can care for him/herself if they want to live independently so get a grip.

@cvsmithot1 i agree completely thank you

[svele555]

nice video but bad technique, you should work little bit on your own position during transfer, maybe just to think that straight and stiff back can also produce pain, discomfort and heavy work

[9010190070086]

@cotaman7 if you had any idea how much OT students had to study and how much care for the patient we learn you wouldn't be so self-righteous

[cotaman7]

@9010190070086 OT is a waste of time, Doctors don't care if a patient can dress themselves or bathe. All they care about is how far a patient can walk. By the way, she used poor techniques all the way through the video. Never put you're knees around the patient's legs, she should put her knees against the patients knees to give her a mechanical advantage and control the patients movement. Never transfer a patient without socks/shoes. You will get in a lot of trouble if you do.

cotaman7: man!!! you are full of hatred to OT, I have found your screen name in every post about OT and nothing but negative comments, ARE YOU AN OT WANNA BE??? lol

[cotaman7]

If you really want to know about OT go to indeed website and read all the negative posts compared to the positive ones. I mean are you going to believe some marketing gimmick from a school that is only interested in your money. This is not an easy field to get into and is very competative. Yaaaa, I know what the hell I am talking about too!

[cotaman7]

OT is nothing but a fraud. All you are going to do is break your back transfering old people and wipe butts. OT is not even considered a respectable field by people in the medical field. Nursing homes are a very stressful and emotionally draining place to work and has a high turn-over. I know, I did this for 10 years and decided to find a real career.

[drrathore]

@cotaman7 What nonsense. OT is a very challenging field which really helps people with disability learn many important new skills and mobility techniques

I really enjoyed having the video to view. It was really helpful in allowing me to grasp a better knowledge of the different transfer techniques. I was nice having it to watch after practicing transfers in order to reinforce my knowledge of transfers

Thank You !!!

The demonstration is very beneficial for those of us who have not had the personal experience of doing this. I now feel better prepared and know what to expect.

[SteveB2010ota]

A great visual aid to help reinforce some classroom training. Thanks.

[joycekerf]

A great help for safely lifting!

[lgallander]

A great teaching tool!

[Tonesnob72]

Not a bad video. Stand and pivot wasn't done properly though. OTA's knees should be in front of client's knee to prevent buckling upon standing and the helper didn't assist the pt. with swiveling or sliding the heels toward the transfer area, the client did all the work so they really don't need assistance.

[shootist2011]

It was nice to have a review of what I learned in school. This video will not only serve as a resource to those praticing in our profession, but benefit other professions as well as caregivers taking care of their loved ones at home. The demonstrations were performed safely and efficiently. I cannot wait to share it. Well done.

[shari579]

Terrific video! Well done. :)
