A national evidence-based guide for safe patient handling: from research to policy and practice in preventing work-related musculoskeletal disorders

Introduction: Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are among the most common occupational injuries in healthcare, with patient handling and movement (PHM) being a primary cause. To prevent WMSDs among healthcare workers (HCWs) and enhance safety in PHM, it is recommended for employers to establish [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
