Today, July 20, 2026, our Health Care Services NC II trainees at Our Lady of Lourdes College Founation learned the proper ways to transport patients safely from their beds to wheelchairs and stretchers without any pain or injury.
โIn this practical session, students practiced key skills like locking wheelchair brakes, using transfer boards, and applying correct body mechanics. Learning these proper lifting techniques helps protect both the patient from falling and the Health Care Assistant/ Nursing aide from back injuries during transfers.
โThis impactful training session was successfully facilitated by Dr. Janette D. Kho, RMT. With strong guidance and a heart for service, our learners are building the skills and care needed to give every patient the dignity they deserve.
