Does your facility have a dedicated staff for patient lifting/transferring?
If not, how do you provide extra personnel when they are needed?
If yes, does the team cover the facility 24/7?
If yes, does the team have other duties to occupy their down time when they might not be call to transfer/lift a patient?
Thanks!
