    Hi, I thought before we finished the skill we had to unlock the wheelchair because leaving them in a locked wheelchair is “false imprisonment”

    • @txcnaskills2599
      @txcnaskills2599  3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Hello Johana, You are testing on Assisting a client from the BED to a Wheelchair. That is it. Period, Nothing else.
      When you put the client in the w/c the wheels must be locked for safety. You will end your skill with the w/c wheels locked.
      The definition of false imprisonment is to prevent a person from leaving a site or position at his or her will. Having a w/c wheels locked is NOT false imprisonment because the client can unlock the wheels when ever they want to and move from one location to another.
      Take care

    I just have a a few question about this skill. What I have learned from my CNA class is that;
    You need to help client to stand first and then ask him to step on the side going to the wheel chair and then ask him if he/she can feel the wheel chair behind her legs and the arm rest. And give her a cue to sit down.
    Thank you so much for your time.

      Hello Raul, Thank you for asking for clarification. I teach according to Prometric guidelines. So, with that being said, I am going to post the guidelines from the Prometric Skill Guidelines below. If you don't have access to this document, I will also post the link below. Notice the guidelines states, THE RESIDENT IS ABLE TO STAND BUT CANNOT TAKE STEPS. If the resident takes a step you will fail this skill.
      The candidate is asked to transfer a resident who is lying in bed, into a wheelchair. A pivot transfer technique is required and a transfer/gait belt is required. The resident is able to stand but cannot take steps. The role of the resident is played by a person.

    • @txcnaskills2599
      @txcnaskills2599  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Netz, I hope I am understanding your question. We don't want to place the wheelchair at the foot of the bed for three reasons.
      1. Step 3 of the instructions says, "Place wheelchair near resident’s bed before
      assisting resident to sit at edge of bed".
      2. Step 6 of the instructions says, "Provide support to assist resident to sitting position on side of bed, without pulling resident by lower arms or hands?
      3. You are required to transfer the patient using a PIVOT technique. The patient CAN NOT take a step. If the wheelchair is at the foot of the bed and the patient is assisted to sit on the side of the bed, how will you complete the transfer with the patient taking a step?

You preform the skill exactly the same as you did in the video, except you position the wheelchair to the left of you rather than the right. I see nothing that would be wrong with putting the wheelchair towards the foot of the bed rather than the head. In fact, that curtain wouldn't be in your way either.

I was told I must put them on myself when doing this step. Also when sitting them up, will I fail if I sit them up myself? Because I was also told that I had to do that myself, and that the patient couldn't help or else I'll fail automatically.

    Dr. Lee, is there any specific place for the wheelchair to be placed? I’m a UAP “care partner” when I do a transfer I usually place the wheelchair facing the head of the bed, I think become I’m most comfortable, because I’m right handed. By doing so am I still within the testing guide lines.

    • @txcnaskills2599
      @txcnaskills2599  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Heavenly, Prometric ONLY requires that the wheelchair be close to the bed so that you can safely transfer the patient without taking a step.
      The skills checklist for WC (#3) states, (Place wheelchair near resident’s bed before assisting resident to sit at edge of bed)
      The key things here are:
      1. place the w/c by the bed
      2. lock the wheels
      3. place the foot pedals up BEFORE assisting the patient to the SIDE OF THE BED
      Prometric does not care if the W/C is at the HOB or at the foot

      @txcnaskills2599  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello DB LM, There is NO WAY a client would not pass the state exam because the person didn't check the bed. When you look at the steps for this exam, checking the BED is not listed. Therefore, how can an evaluator mark you off for something that is not there. The state NEVER says the wheelchair MUST touch the bed. This will have to be proven to me because both of those things you said are NOT STEPS from the state from this skill. Someone is not being honest.
      A student will fail for not locking the wheelchair, if the client takes a step, not having on shoes, feet not touching the floor, or if the student pulls on the client. All of the failing points are listed as steps by the state.

  • @ambermaredia9879
    @ambermaredia9879 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Dr. Lee, I have a question about this skill. Do we have to make the resident feel the chair behind their legs before sitting? Also, the skills checklist provided by Prometric says that the resident cannot take any steps, so does that mean they cannot turn their feet before sitting in the chair? When I practice this skill it seems like I am being too forceful while turning them to the chair because their feet are still oriented in line with the bed. I wanted to make the resident stand and then turn their feet to align with the chair so that it is easier to sit. (I hope that made sense) :) Thank you!

    • @txcnaskills2599
      @txcnaskills2599  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hello Amber, I think you are asking two questions.
      1. The Prometric skills checklist states: Move wheelchair footrests out of the way before standing resident for transfer (e.g., lift, swing, or remove)? Therefore, you can stand the resident on the side of the bed. The resident CAN'T take a step. So , I would make sure the resident's feet are positioned where I want them when the person stands.
      2. If you pivot the resident to the chair in one movement, the resident will not have time to feel for the back of the chair. Prometric skills check list states: Transfer resident as a pivot completed without having resident take step(s) to reach wheelchair, and before assisting resident to sit in wheelchair, positions with the back of resident’s legs against the seat of wheelchair?
      The last sentence is to make sure the candidate is sitting the person in the seat of the wheelchair and not on the arm rest.
