I have a check-off on Thursday and one of the things I have to do is the transfer of patient from bed to wheelchair. I want to make sure I am correct. For example, if a patient in bed has right-sided weakness, when getting out of bed, he or she will have go on the left side of the bed because their left side is the "strong side"?
I'm hope I am right.
Thanks.
