Think back: an introduction to safe and efficient patient transfer and object handling

This 1975 film, commissioned by the Australian Repatriation Department, provides instruction on the correct methods of manual handling in order to avoid back injury. The film contains three distinct sections: the first focusing on the principles for lifting heavy objects; the second showing different methods for lifting patients in the hospital; and the third showing methods for manoeuvring heavy loads such as shovelling material and pushing a trolley.
