Thank you JBN,
thats what I agree.
But our "Chief" has a written "Standards" for every xxx .
(Stolen anywhere from the net and never revised)
--- "Bring the patient into his bed and ..."
Talking with him - about revision - is ---- not very "comfortable".
And we have a lot of problems, if we don`t follow that xxx.

That's ridiculous- how are you expected to carry a debilitated pt into a house by yourself?
I guess your company must want to pay for injuries you may incur to yourself and possibly the patient.
Call for ambulance keep pt safe- supportive care- blankets, etc.
I have a relative named Elfriede :)

Hi there !
If you find our patient on the flor/soil with an apoplectic insult ---
--- do move him ?
(Sure ! Life support measures !)
But if this is not necessary ---
Do you carry him into his bed, or do leave him there to wait (with you) for the ambulance?
(ulterior motives : thrombus/embolus)
