Why we know this works

We love this course because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we meet a lot of caregivers who hurt their back trying to be a hero on a transfer that was meant for two. How do you know when a transfer needs two people? A simple test we use: if you cannot lift and talk at the same time, or the person cannot help at all, one set of hands is not enough. This 15 minute video teaches the two-person technique so both helpers move together, which lowers the risk of falls and injuries for everyone involved.

It is especially important for families caring for someone after surgery, a long hospital stay, or with the deep weakness that comes with advanced illness. If even two people are struggling, or your loved one cannot bear any weight through their legs, move up to the Hoyer Lifts training, because at that point equipment should be doing the lifting, not backs.
