I have back injuries related to an MVA a few weeks ago. As a result, I have been put on a restriction of lifting no more than 20 pounds by my doctor. Problem is, my rotation is on the ICU with total care patients who need a lot of weight support. I can not lift those patients. My clinical instructor is furious with me for not being able to participate. But I can do everything else! She's pushing me to lift but I'm afraid to *bleep* up my back even more. I just really need some advice...I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I want to participate but I don't want to get worse!
