week 4. post 1

Today as I was walking down the corridor a lady called out from her room and a situation presented. she felt like she was slipping out of her chair and her foot was propped up on a leg rest, she had little strength to straighten herself up and was obese. So i went in to help her and realised i couldn;t on my own, The nurses around came to help and first tried moving her with her help but was no good so I decided to use the sheet that was covereing the cushion she was sitting on like a slidesheet so i called the shots and it worked and she was happy sittng upright in no time. I think i did well with taking control of the sitch because at one stage there were too many cooks in the kitchen and the patient was becoming panicked. next time i know to get help or even put a better suited pillow there to prevent it from happening in the ifrst place.
