◦ HSC2028 MOVE AND POSITION INDIVIDUALS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THEIR PLAN OF CARE. ◦ Outcome 1. Understand anatomy and physiology in relation to moving and positioning individuals. ◦ 1.1 As care workers part of our role is to help people move and reposition in the safest possible way. To enable us to do this we need to understand the anatomy and physiology of the human body. Understanding this reduces the risk of harm to you or the person in you care.

periods. The heart is also susceptible to certain molecules for which are able to bind to its receptors or diffuse across its membrane and affect intracellular activity and consequently have effects on the overall homeostatic condition of the organism. The Sinoatrial Node (SA Node) acts as the pacemaker of the heart by providing a small‚ autorhythmic electrical pulses that travel to the atrioventriclar node (AV node) and through the Bundle of His and Purkinje Fibers through gap junctions at the
