Basic Information
Scope
Main technical content: 5.2 Operational key points: Move the wheelchair to the bedside, ensuring it forms a 30°–45° angle with the foot of the bed. Retract the footrest, apply the wheel brake, and secure the wheelchair. Lower the bed rail, remove the blanket, and position the elderly person lying face down on the edge of the bed closest to the caregiver. The caregiver stands beside the bed, facing the foot of the bed, with their foot closest to the bed placed in front and the other foot placed behind. The caregiver places their hand closest to the bed under the elderly person's neck and shoulders, and their other hand under the elderly person's knees or calves. The caregiver then turns to help the elderly person sit up, allowing their feet to hang down, and assists them in putting on their shoes.
