  • I fell asleep watching this..

  • @cvsmithot1 i agree completely thank you

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • @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 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

  • 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

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

  • Very helpful for OT students.. thx

  • This is a great video! Thanks!
