Understand
the principles of assisting and moving
an individual
Without specialist training
we would not be able to assist and move an individual safely as we are unaware
of safer moving methods and techniques. We will also not be able to recognise
equipment, operations and its purposes. If we assist and move an individual
without specialist training, then we may cause harm and injury to an individual
as well as ourselves. According to legislations, we should not undertake any
tasks if we are incompetent.
