This is a great reference for the PT student or the experienced clinician with the goal of instructing the PT aide in clinical handling skills. It is complete with pictures and text that is easy to understand and somewhat concise.
Its an old additional but affordable at a very low price the pictures are the ebst part of the book, i would recommend this book to every one since its more of visual knowledge which is easier to grasp while learning new concepts, i used this book for my national certification career association NCCA exam to be a certified patient care technician and was pretty good, i am glad that i came across this book on
A great book to utilize year after year for my physical therapy course, it's essential guidelines helps me progress as a therapist in my everyday life at my job. It helps reminds me about the proper protocols to use for transfers and lifting techniques to prevent work injuries. It also tells you about the proper procedures of ambulation with an assistive device.
Slightly outdated language, but the picture are useful if teaching one to learn how to perform difficult transfers, or if you want a quick refresher on something you haven't done for a while in practice as a PT, OT, CNA, etc.
