Wheelchair Caregiver Procedures

De video biedt een stapsgewijze handleiding voor het veilig verplaatsen van een zorgvrager in een rolstoel. Het begint met het voorbereiden van de rolstoel door de remmen te controleren en de voetsteunen omhoog te klappen. Vervolgens wordt de zorgvrager naar de rolstoel geleid en geholpen om veilig te gaan zitten. De video behandelt ook het passeren van een deur en het veilig aankomen op de bestemming, waarbij de rolstoel op de rem wordt gezet en er op een gepaste manier afscheid wordt genomen.
