Why we know this works

We love this course because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we often get called in after a caregiver tried to dead-lift a loved one and both of them ended up on the floor. How do you move someone who cannot stand at all? Not by lifting harder: this 30 minute video teaches techniques that move a person who cannot bear weight safely and with less lifting, whether the reason is a broken bone, an amputation, a wound, or a spinal cord injury.

It is especially important for caregivers during non weight bearing recovery orders after a fracture or surgery, and for families living with paralysis or limb loss. If your loved one has good sitting balance and strong arms, add the Sliding Boards training, and if they cannot help with the move at all, the Hoyer Lifts course covers the equipment that should do the lifting for you.
