Gluteus maximus is the large muscle in the each of the buttock which provides power when straightening the hips. Quadriceps is the large muscle group on front of the thigh which straightens the knee. Hamstrings are the large muscle group which is on the back of the thigh which bends the knee. Gastronomies are the calf muscle which lifts the heel and straightens the ankle. Latissimus dorsi is a large muscle on either side of the spine which supports the spine and stabilises the shoulder joint. Trapezius is the muscles on the spine which also raise the shoulder girdle. Biceps is the muscle which bends the elbow. Triceps is the muscle which straightens the elbow. Deltoid forms the curve of the …show more content…
The pressure and shearing will interrupt the local blood supply to the skin and also deprive it of nutrients and oxygen if you do the moving and handing correctly also without the adequate supply of nutrients cells in the skin die. Functions of the skin are to disperse pressure but if the high pressure is applied the damage can result and also prolonged periods at the lower pressure also can cause damage. Also with the good moving and positioning techniques to prevent shearing damage while the manoeuvre is being carried out and will also minimise the reactions to prolonged pressure being placed on the vulnerable …show more content…
The main points for manual handling should be avoided as far as reasonably practicable and when unavoidable, and by putting the reduce risk of injury to the possible level. The risk assessment will be the highlight by using the hoists and mechanical lifting devices to reduce the incidence of musculoskeletal injuries in staff.
D) Manual handling operations regulations 1992 By carrying out a risk assessment on manual handling tasks. Employees have the duties to follow the appropriate systems of work which is laid down for their safety and making proper use of the equipment provided for their safety, by co-operating with their employer on health and safety matters and by informing the employer if they identify any hazardous handling activities and also taking care to ensure that their activities do not put others at risk.
The health and safety factors injuries arise from the moving and handling of people which you should follow the appropriate systems of work and the use of equipment provided, if any problems occur with the individual or equipment which would take reasonable care to ensure that our actions do not put others in danger and also the health and safety issues will be then identified and built into the complete care
