Funny, you’ve triggered a memory that every new position I take as a CNA/PCA always has an inevitable body mechanics quickie class. A couple of hours or so. The class is merely a show so later when you’re injured they can blame you and the insurance won’t pay out. Tough luck. This is because the methods they teach are ineffective at stopping long term damage or preventing any one of us from diving to save a falling patient. The class is usually comprised of people with already spurred bones and worn knees and destroyed spines and pinched static nerves but also new aides and nurses who ignore the warning signs all around them. They don’t bat an eye at the old people who should have retired years ago but grind all day leaning over desks, and pace the halls, and lean over and lift people with brute strength. Kids: You don’t ever want to get punched by a 30 year vet nurse. Candice may have smoked since 1984 and have a hump on her back but she’ll knock you on your ass and type a sonnet nurses note about it. She’ll save your life and whip you into shape to go home safe. That’s her masterpiece. My point being after all that, I agree.
Also, anything I wrote before 31 would make you cry in a corner that I’m your fan.
