Objective: The aim of this study was to describe hospital nursing staff use of lift/transfer devices and the presence of factors at the time of lifts/transfers with potential to influence whether devices are used. Methods: Participants were 108 US nursing staff in a university-based medical center and two community hospitals. A self-completed questionnaire was used to collect demographic and work characteristics, typical frequency of patient lifts/ transfers, training in and typical use of lift equipment, and specific factors that could influence use. Proportional distributions of lifting/transferring and repositioning frequencies in a typical shift, amount of equipment use, and factors present were by BhDMf5ePHKav1zEoum1tQfN4a+kJLhEZgbsIHo4XMi0hCywCX1AWnYQp/IlQrHD3YzRZ0r/T2sqSGT7wq0QKKZU8sW3RYEw+4i3dSDs/xwsXQgG/XqXVng== examined overall and across worker and work-related characteristics. Results: Although trained in equipment use, only 40% used equipment for at least half of lifts/transfers. During lifts/transfers, factors often present included patient unable to help with lift/transfer (91.3%) or of a size/weight where participant needed assistance to help lift/transfer (87.5%); availability of others who could assist with manual lift (86.3%) or use of lift equipment (82.4%); and equipment functioning properly (86.4%), having supplies available (82.5%), and being easy to retrieve from storage (81.6%).

  • Providers | Patient Lift Systems Policy
    PROVIDER POLICIES & PROCEDURES ________________________________________________________________________ PATIENT LIFT SYSTEMS The primary purpose of this document is to assist providers enrolled in the Connecticut Medical Assistance Program (CMAP) with the information needed to support a medical necessity determination for patient lift systems. By clarifying the information needed for prior authorization of services, HUSKY Health hopes to facilitate timely review of requests so that individuals obtain the medically necessary care they need as quickly as possible. A patient lift is used to safely transfer an individual with physical limitations between bed, chair, wheelchair, commode, or shower/bath chair and back, using electric, mechanical, or hydraulic power. Types of lift systems include a mobile floor lift, a sit-to-stand lift, a fixed overhead lift suspended from a ceiling mount or overhead track, and a portable lift suspended from overhead or wall track in which the motor is detaching and reattached between the various tracks. Patient lifts, incorporate a postural component for the person being lifted; i.e., straps, vests, slings, belts, body cradle. A patient lift with a sling and/or or other seated postural component is generally used for persons whose mobility is limited, who is unable to transfer independently using other durable medical equipment, transfer strategies, or assistance from a caretaker. A sit-to-stand lift is used for persons with some mobility but who lack strength or muscle control to rise to a standing position from a bed, wheeled mobility device, chair, or commode. These lifts use straps, vests, or belts to make this transition possible. CLINICAL GUIDELINE Coverage guidelines for patient lift systems are made in accordance with the Department of Social Services (DSS) definition of Medical Necessity.

  • When the Injured Nurse Returns to Work: an Institutional Ethnography
    When the Injured Nurse Returns to Work: An Institutional Ethnography by Laurel Ann Clune A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing University of Toronto © Copyright by Laurie Clune 2011 When the Injured Nurse Returns to Work: An Institutional Ethnography Laurel Clune Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing Science Laurence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing, University of Toronto 2011 Abstract Nursing is a high risk profession for injury. A Canadian survey reports many nurses are in poor physical and emotional health; they sustain more musculoskeletal and violence related injuries than other occupational groups. In Ontario, an injury management approach called Early Return to Work (RTW) requires injured workers, including nurses, to go back to work before full recovery. The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board cite this approach as beneficial to both the employer and employee. This study uses an institutional ethnographic approach to examine critically the RTW process from the standpoint of injured registered nurses. Through interviews and mapping activities with nurses, other health professionals and managers, a rendering of the social organization of hospital injury management emerges. The findings suggest that the implementation of RTW is complicated and difficult for nurses, their families and hospital employers. Injured nurses engage in significant amounts of domestic, rehabilitation and accommodation work in order to participate in the RTW process. When the returning nurse is unable to engage in full duties hospital operations become disorganized. Collective agreements and human resources procedures limit the participation of injured nurses in creative and/or new roles that could utilize their knowledge and skills.

  • And 17-Year Old Workers Using Power-Driven Patient Lift Devices
    Enclosure I NIOSH Assessment of Risks for 16- and 17-Year Old Workers Using Power-Driven Patient Lift Devices Thomas R. Waters, Ph.D., James Collins, Ph.D. and Dawn Castillo, MPH Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Objective To determine under what circumstances or conditions 16- and 17-year-old youth can safely operate or assist in the operation of power-driven patient lift devices, NIOSH researchers explored available data, reviewed relevant scientific literature, and conducted a biomechanical analysis. I. Review of Literature A. Surveillance Data It is unclear how many 16- and 17-year olds are currently employed in jobs that involve the use of power-driven patient lift devices. Such work may occur in a variety of job titles or occupations in a variety of health care settings. NIOSH analyzed microdata files from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Current Population Survey (CPS) to provide insight into the potential number of youth workers, using the job titles of nursing aides, orderlies and attendants, and the job settings of nursing care facilities and hospitals. Based on 2009 CPS data, there were an estimated 3,979 16- and 17-year old fulltime equivalents (FTE) (one FTE=2,000 hours worked per year; 40 hours per week for 50 weeks per year) working as nursing aides, orderlies and attendants [NIOSH 2010]. Eighty-three percent were females (3,307) and forty percent (1,585) worked in nursing care facilities. Employees 16- and 17-years of age represented less than 1% of nursing aides, orderlies and attendants FTEs.

  • Mechanical Patient Lift Prohibition
    Wisconsin Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, Inc. 204 South Hamilton Street Madison, WI 53703 608-255-7060 FAX 608-255-7064 www.wahsa.org Mechanical Patient Lift Prohibition Issue: The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) issued a regulation effective July 19, 2010 which revises the Child Labor provisions in the Fair Labor Standards Act by prohibiting 16- and 17-year old employees “from operating, tending, . working from, repairing, servicing, or disassembling a crane, derrick, elevator, hoist or high-lift truck.” According to representatives of the DoL Wage and Hour Division, mechanical lifts used for lifting and transferring the elderly in nursing homes and assisted living facilities fall within that prohibition. WAHSA Position: Oppose. Support for a compromise which would permit 16- and 17-year old caregivers to operate or assist in the operation of a power-driven mechanical patient lift with the assistance of an experienced caregiver at least 18 years of age. Arguments in Support of WAHSA Position: According to the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development (DWD), the DoL regulation conflicts with the Wisconsin Safe Lift Initiative to incorporate mechanical lifting devices in all health care settings in an effort to reduce the number of employee back injuries. In a September 16, 2010 letter to Art Kerschner, Jr., Chief of the Child Labor and Special Enforcement Branch of the DoL Wage and Hour Division, former DWD Secretary Roberta Gassman wrote that “using the lifts is actually safer for the employee so prohibiting an age group seems contradictory.” The safety issue also was raised in a December 10, 2010 letter to Nancy Leppink, Deputy Administrator of the DoL Wage and Hour Division, from U.S.

  • Survey of Patient Mobility and Lift Technologies Toward Advancements and Standards
    Draft: 9/15/06 Survey of Patient Mobility and Lift Technologies Toward Advancements and Standards Roger Bostelman, James Albus July 2006 Disclaimer: NIST does not endorse products discussed within this report nor manufacturers of these products. Products mentioned are for information purposes only and are not expressed as an endorsement for them or their manufacturer. 1 of 95 Draft: 9/15/06 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This survey provides a review of example off-the-shelf lift and wheelchair products on the market today. Also, it provides a review of example research in these areas including advancements in intelligent wheelchair designs and capabilities. We have focused on lift devices, wheelchairs, the combination of wheelchairs and lift devices, rehabilitation and standards. What appears to be lacking, as determined by our research for this survey, are the following points regarding wheelchair dependents: • There is limited research and development in the area of advanced patient lift devices, beyond standers, that are combined with wheelchairs to allow lift above approximately 5.5 cm (14 in) to reach upper shelves and even upper floors, • There is limited research and development in the area of patient lift devices combined with wheelchairs to place patients on toilets, chairs, or beds or in bathtubs, • There has been and is research and development ongoing in the area of advanced intelligent wheelchairs but, has yet to reach the commercial market due to: cost, lacking robust capabilities, little or no clinical trials, or other issues, • There
