Many back injuries could be prevented by using appropriate body mechanics during daily Sit/Stand Class activities. Tuesday & Thursday 11:00 am - 11:45 am | PAC/Live TV As an example, when lifting objects, you should set your trunk muscles to immobilize your spine, and then the arms and legs can do the lifting. It is important to keep a straight back with the pelvis as this will keep your center of gravity over your base of support. When lifting an object, keep your feet apart for a wide base of support. This broadens your base of support making it easier to maintain your balance while lifting. You should also lift with your knees. This lowers your center of gravity and helps you to use your quadriceps (leg muscles), which are much stronger than your back muscles, to do the lifting. While lifting an object, you should avoid holding your breath. Finally, once the object is lifted, hold the load close to your body. By doing this, the load will be lighter than holding it away from the body because of the effects of gravity and the increased lever length of the arms.

The Rehabilitation Team assists each person in staying safe in their living environment. The Rehabilitation Team is there to support them through both their challenges and successes. For additional information, please contact your Select Rehabilitation Physical, Occupational and Speech Therapists.

Wynanne took another hiatus from work as she stayed at home to help her children adjust to their many challenges from the move. In 1979, Wynanne was offered a job with a home health agency. This was a new and growing area of nursing and says Wynanne, “it was exciting to be able to bring ‘solid’ nursing care to patients at home”. This experience led to her move to the new rehabilitation and extended care offered by the Memphis Veterans Hospital. The laid back and relaxed atmosphere promoted, allowed nurses to wear jeans and tee shirts. According to Wynanne, patients sometimes asked, “When am I going to see a nurse?” When the VA decided to open a home health agency, Wynanne was one of four nurses selected to practice there. Wynanne ultimately became the Director of Home Based Primary Care, an innovative, interdisciplinary approach involving all branches of medical services caring for over 100 homebound veterans.
