Things To Consider For Moving & Handling
Moving and handling is a key part of the working day for most employees; from moving equipment, laundry, catering, supplies or waste to assisting residents in moving. So here at Tiacare, we want to make these tasks as easy as possible.
Caring For Someone Needing Moving & Handling Aids
All our moving and handling products are designed to ease the difficult tasks of the handling of people with reduced or limited mobility like our bed management systems, transfer platforms, hoists, slings and transfer boards. This could be from chair to another chair, chair to a bed or to a standing position. Without equipment, there can be a risk of injury for both the service user and the caregiver, with the application of equipment, this chance of injury can be greatly reduced.
(HSE, RoSPA have shown that the repeated use of incorrect lifting techniques to move loads and working in stressful according to the manual handling operations regulations 1992)
We have designed our equipment in conjunction with user’s, health professionals and carers in mind and carried risk assessments for health and safety on how our products will affect your work and help with handling techniques. We are currently providing our products to NHS hospitals, private purchase and nursing homes. Our priority is to offer high-quality products at a price to benefit everybody involved.
