Ergonomics advice plz
hi reddit completely random and also don’t even know if this is a good place to post but im desperate. I’m a nurse in ICU been working here for a little over a year post grad. Everything good but one thing i just cannot seem to get my ergonomics right. As u may know we have q2 turns on lots of pts, also have lots of pts who tend to be bariatric. I always seem to strain the muscles in my back and always have an achy back at work. Luckily nothing that seems too serious and tend to go away when i get off but i don’t want to to continue and lowk thinking about leaving just to save my back (mother is a nurse of 35 years with chronic back pain from nursing so she fear mongers me a lot for good reasons). i’ve asked many people and tried so many options but i can’t seem to get how people “turn with their legs” when there is so little room. Anyways any advice at all would be appreciated to spare a young nurse. Thank you so much for all yall do :)
