As a carer or care worker, manual handling and moving other people is probably a huge part of your daily routine, whether that’s a family member or you work in a care home.
Daily tasks might include helping people get into and out of bed, pushing wheelchairs, assisting individuals up and down stairs, carrying shopping and taking items down from high shelves.
It is a high-risk job that requires a thorough understanding of the associated dangers and how to prevent an accident.
