Hinweis der Redaktion
- Today I have been asked to talk about manual -handling for the client of size. Between now and 3:30 we are going to do the following things. I am going to introduce the idea of manual handling and hear about the challenges you are having in your role in terms of manual handling. I will then present about what the literature is saying the problems are and see how much your experience reflects that. We are going to look at starting to address these manual handling challenges and it is embedded in risk assessment. I am going to get you to challenge the way you engage with risk assessment to see how we can take a fresh opportunistic look at it as opposed to fear based. Finally we are going to try and apply risk assessment to some manual handling challenges by engaging with some of the equipment we have to offer here at the workshop. We will conclude with a de-brief and sum up after which there will be free exploration time
- Kay, Glass and Evans published a really interesting article in 2014 on manual handling providing an outline of how we are doing in manual handling as well as a bit about the history of manual handling. They describe how manual-handling interventions that we know today gleaned from the petrochemical industry. Interventions of outlining exactly what people had to do and telling they to just do it was successful in that industry therefore this philosophy was transferred to the manual handling space. Unlike the petrochemical industry, one person completes a task with an inanimate object. What is different in people handling is that people have to engage with each other to complete any manual-handling task.
- This diagram illustrates the PEO model of occupational performance, which we all learn in university. It basically says that the person interacts with the environment, through the tasks they do and the way they do it. This diagram assumes that one person interacts with the environment through the task however in manual handling there is always at least two people and in bariatric care, sometimes more. What was a simple diagram now gets complicated and we feel somewhat surprised when manual handling is complicated.
- If you look at this diagram it essentially includes everything you have to consider when addressing a manual handling issue and some of these factors are indeed more important than others. The tasks are manual handling transfers, the performance becomes how we do them and the aim in the middle is a safe and efficient transfer. This concept of efficiency is a key point I want to come back to later I had the opportunity to attend the Australian Association for the Manual Handling of people (AAMHP) this time last year. It was a three-day conference with some prominent speakers on manual handling. In the presentations I attended, it took until the last day before I heard anyone talk about manual handling being a social activity. What I mean by this is that it involves a communication as well as a physical activity and when I talk about communication, I mean a negotiation. The social side of manual handling is something I will touch on later too
- TRANSFERS SHOWERING - pannus, unpredictable flesh movement (Hignett et al, 2007) MOVING equipment and client (Crowley and Leggett, 2010) LIFTING LIMBS - 30% weight total body weight (Nelson et al., 2006) 2.4 increase in staff to assist patient to MOBILSE Rose et al (2007)
- POLICY - directions Hignett et al 2007 found that only 42% of surveyed institutions had a policy for bariatric clients, although 28% reported that their organisations did not adhere to this policy very well. 35% of health trusts no extra manual handling training in regard to bariatric clients (Hignett et al 2007) Scott study - Over 50% of the nurses surveyed reported that no special staffing accommodations were made by the home care agency to take care of morbidly obese patients – 50% cases Only 33% of the home health nurses reported having the equipment they needed to care for these patients. This is slightly more than a previous study noted where only 22.5% had the resources they needed (Carr, 2008)
- Whipple is 2008 surveyed nurses on a ward with a prominent bariatric clientelle and asked when did you last use a hoist? 6% calls to the ambulance services are for just a lift alone. In terms of Ambulance workers – it is interesting that a care giver can say “no” to lifting a client whereas there is an expectations that two workers in a mobile van arriving to a situation after a brief over the phone is. This really highlights also the cultural environment that can come into play when assisting the person of size.
- I had a client recently who was living in department of housing with cerebral palsy and 120kg. She was mobilizing but was unsteady of her feet. This meant that when she transferred from sitting to standing she would drop onto the chair as she lost her balance slightly in the inegress. This is what this static/dynamic point alludes to. Sandi Lightfoot Collins suggests that a doubling of the SWL is needed for a client in this category who falls into a piece of equipment. This means with a client of 120kg, a chair of 240kg plus is needed to accommodate her weight. Sandi shared stories with us at the last conferences of fractures toilet bowls because of this very issue. In my case, there was a dissonce as the client needed a chair of weight capacity 240kg but not massively wide as she was not an overly large lady but this was the only option that was available which made her outgrown her house sooner while she was weight bearing and she would probably fit it again when she was non weight bearing.
- BODY SHAPE DRAW ON THE BOARD We know about the physical stuff… This is the part I am really interested in.. The social bit and this and the next slide I think there is an attitude in manual handling that people should just be able to do it But of course we know that is not going to happen
- The interaction between both is frustrating people
- Because of this we are using the what we call “OHS card” where we say for OHS reasons you must do x,y,z. This is legitimate but I think it so threatening and dismoralising for a person where there are so many other options if we upskill ourselves. I think if we learn the art of negotiation we can listen, understand, appreciate, give control to the person and work together to solve this problem. Once you play the OHS card, you might damage a therapeutic relationship forever.
- Yes manual handling is physical but it is also social. To get over these barriers We need to listen We need to understand We need to enable the person grieve We need to give control
- Risk management is the process we use to solve manual handling problems. I feel this is the key to starting to be able to cope with the tsumani that is upon us in terms of the manual handling of the bariatric person. In preparation for this talk, I talked to a number of key people around the world who have knowledge in bariatric care and many of them say they are still learning. There is so much unknown and we need a framework for making good effective and efficient decisions. We are still learning and we are continuing to learn and risk assessment is the process through which we are going to find the answers. I am going to challenge the way you engage with is today to determine if we can use it to enable as opposed to hinder function.
- In terms of risk assessment, we assess it in terms of the likelihood of something happening and the severity of the event if it occurs. What is it? Risk? What is risk?
- When we look at the word risk in the manual handling sector, it has many negative connotations (word cloud on slide) and you would kinda wonder who would ever want to work in it. When we look beyond that, for example in mental health, we get many positive words associated with risk we talk about opportunity.
- Because we only ever engage with risk assessment when danger is present, our aim in manual handling has been to make things safe. We rarely look at making things efficient.
- A second consequence is that if we look at risk assessment when danger is present we engage with it out of dear. There is still a real fear culture with the workplace health and safety arena of which manual handling is a cousin. We are really fearful about being wrong and can find ourselves hanging onto rule. We will talk about rules later. Talk about Ken Robinson, children with give it a go
- Getting back to risk being seen in a slightly broader light, risk can therefore describes risk assessment on a continuum where you get positives/enablers and negatives/barriers. Almost like a thermometer, when the temperature gets hot, you turn it down. I think this is important because in mental health, risk assessment in engaged with all the time to test whether there are risks with a certain action with a client. If there are unwanted outcomes we control for them and enhance the positives. The key is that risk assessment is engaged with, not just when danger is present, but to test out options and check if they are merited.
- Has anyone heard of this gentleman? His name is Warren MacDonald. He is Australian and he is a double amputee, speaks across the world about resilience and positive risk taking. A picture of this gentleman is probably the reason why we went into OT, it encapsulates “Enabling Occupation”. I preparation for this presentation, I contacted Warren and asked him about his goal to mountain climb when he first had his accident. He describes a scenario when he was learning to fall. (read quote from Warren). Disconnect “I had a classic situation where I was supposed to learn how to fall in my prosthetics, because it's going to happen, right? And while we have a mat set up in front of me and everything, next thing I've got two health professionals, having this conversation, one each side of me, discussing whether we should do this or not. I'm watching this conversation back and forth, and decided; we're dong it; and just fell forward. They were kind of freaked, but my thing was; "what, are we going to wait and let me fall outside while I'm on my own” This scenario explains how we as therapists use risk assessment and the barriers we place on ourselves in risk assessment. If we don’t do it, we will be safe, but if we do it, look at how much we will achieve.
- Lets apply this to manual handling. This is a very simple but common debate in manual handling – breaks on the hoist when positioning in a chair. Which is it? - Slide with question – poll? Whilst I am interested in your answer, I am more interested in the process you used to get there.
- Manual handling is full of rules and I would ask where these rules came from? Who says? And is this credible? Based on research? I would ask you to think about who the rules are for? A care worker doing a job wants the petro-chemical answer, a set or directions and guidelines that say “just do this”. But what about therapists? Should we always be a sheep and follow these rules? Where should our professional development as clinicians come from?
- Picture at beach – sometimes rules make us forget what the actual aim is
- Child - Sometimes the consequence of putting a rule into practice has so many negative outcomes Many of us learn about these rules from senior colleages but as O’Donnell so eloquently put it…
- A lot of the time it is through social interactions between staff where the senior member of staff dictates what to say. However O’Donnell in (2007) out it really nicely when he said To many people "experience" means "making the same mistakes with increasing confidence over an impressive number of years". We have this Chinese whispers scenario where the rule is re-written slightly and can actually miss the point.
- Or we just become a sheep, completely de-skilled following the leader when the leader may not actually be on the right path
- How many of you have worked this out? By not working it out, are we creating barriers when there are already enough?
- Csikszentmihalyi (1997) discusses creativity in terms of effective problem solving, where divergent ideas are used to find workable solutions. He links creativity with risk, identifying that to be creative is to take a risk. In a clinical setting, where risk is regularly reduced to its harmful elements, a reluctance to engage with risk limits the extent to which a clinician can be creative in.(18)
- I am therefore suggesting a new way of looking at risk assessment and suggesting a two-step process to risk assessment. Involving divergent thinking first to be creative in problem solving and using risk assessment to test out your ideas for safety.
- We need to recognise there will be residual risk because of all the factors in the PEO model that feed into manual handling
- Lets start looking beyond safety to efficiency, lets start to use RA to test options, lets start using risk assessment to find opportunities.
- A really important aspect of risk assessment is comparing. In the decision making literature a lot is written about comparing with the next best alternative. Sometimes this can be a really good way in manual handling to see where is the best option to go with. What is the alternative and check to see which is the lesser of the two evils
- Lets apply this to manual handling. This is a very simple but common debate in manual handling – breaks on the hoist when positioning in a chair. Which is it? - Slide with question – poll? Whilst I am interested in your answer, I am more interested in the process you used to get there.
- Lifting cushions!
