Nursing and Moving Patients Survey

Dear medical professionals at minoritynurse.com,

I am an industrial design student who is researching about nurses and moving patients for school. I have been reading through forums searching for people’s comments on their experiences with moving and lifting patients. After learning about the hardships you encounter on a daily basis, I have developed an even deeper respect for your profession. I want to redesign the way lifts are used to make it safer and easier for both the nurses and the patients. I would really appreciate it if some of you could fill out a survey to help me find a direction to redesign them. Also any comments about your previous experiences with lifts or your thoughts about them would be greatly appreciated in this forum post.

I apologize if the questionnaire is a little compact, since survey monkey only allows 10 questions. Also 7 and 10 force you to pick no, but there is a comment section that I will count as yes.

Please feel free to forward this to anyone you think would be able to help.

Thank you,
Brian
