Are there any hazards such as wet floor, rugs to trip over etc, is the equipment working/safe eg bare wires, broken parts etc, has the individual's condition worsened ie can they still communicated/understand, are they weaker etc, can you do it alone or do you need help? That sort of thing. Hope that helps Aunty Sue Title: Re: moving and positioning Post by: molliann on January 27, 2012, 05:35:57 am Thank you so much :) |
