23 Policy and Program Development
24 The Legislation Seems Simple But Some questions to ponder: What should be included in a program? How do you decide what lifts to purchase? Have you thought about logistics / laundry? What about storage? How do you really reduce the risk of injury?
25 Elements of an Effective Program Executive Commitment Safe Patient Handling Committee Plan Risk Assessment Act Do Detailed Action Plan Check Written Program / Policy Implement Controls Training / Champions Program
26 Executive Commitment The executive team should: Sign the policy Show involvement in the implementation Have a representative on the safe patient handling committee How to get involvement: Show executive team possible return on investment
27 Safe Patient Handling Committee Executive / Senior Team Representative Clinical Staff Managerial and non-managerial All units Union Representatives Facilities / Maintenance Infection Control Housekeeping Logistics Human Resources Safety / Occupational Health
28 Safe Patient Handling Committee Coordinates risk assessments Discusses solutions Selects or advises on equipment Creates action plan Drives action plan to completion Establishes method to secure funding / plan for investment Coordinates training activities
29 Safe Patient Handling Committee Establishing a Committee Recruit participants Elect committee chair & co-chair Schedule meetings Establish meeting protocols Training for Committee Role of committee Hazard assessment techniques Selection of equipment Organizational change techniques Ontario Safety Association for Community & Health Care (2005). OSACH Planning Guide for Implementation of Client Mechanical Lifts, Second Edition. Occupational Health and Safety Agency for Healthcare in British Columbia (2000). OHSAH Reference Guidelines for Safe Patient Handling.
30 Risk Assessment Analyze Injury Trends Units Type of injury Cause of injury (what type of transfer) Shift Body part Use methods to measure risk ISO/PDTR Draft Standard - Manual handling of people in the healthcare sector Safe Patient Handling Risk Assessment, Swedish Medical Center, 2007
31 Detailed Action Plan Assign responsibility Set due dates Hold team accountable for on time completion Schedule reoccurring meetings to discuss status Action Item Due Date Assigned To Status Create draft policy 12/31/11 Mary Inventory current aids available 11/15/11 Joe Complete risk assessment for ER 12/10/11 Jane
32 Written Program / Policy Integrated into Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) Requires replacement of manual lifting and transferring of patients with powered patient transfer devices lifting devices lift teams Examples available on VA, State of Washington, and State of MN Websites
33 Controls Use risk assessment to determine appropriate controls to reduce risk Move away from manual transfers even with lift teams
34 Lift Teams Physically fit Competent in lifting techniques Typically young men Does not reduce risk transfers it to a specific group
35 Lateral Transfer Devices
36 Lifts NCCI RESEARCH BRIEF, March 2011 Restrepo, Schmid, Shuford, Shyong
37 Challenges to Evaluate / Consider Space Constraints Storage Constraints Doorways Laundry / Logistics 37
38 Safe Patient Handling Algorithms Develop algorithms to help staff make informed decisions Examples available on VA website
39 Chart Coding System Use system to quickly communicate ambulatory state of patient Swedish Medical Center 2007, Safe Patient Handling Risk Assessment
40 Training Staff Patients How does it benefit them and their patients? How does it benefit them? How does the equipment work? When should it be used? Logistics Hands on training by peers How does it work? Instructions as needed
41 Champions Program Establish unit lead to head efforts for their units Demonstrate use of lifts to peers Measure lift use / spot check Engage peers to encourage use of lifts Train new staff on lift use in the unit
