Hospitals and long-term care facilities are always struggling to reduce costs while improving the delivery of health care. CCMSI can be a valuable partner in that effort, by implementing effective policies like proactive no-lift programs, and working with you to reduce patient-assistance related injuries and combative resident claims.
At CCMSI, we place a major focus on reducing musculoskelatal disorders. As your loss control partner, we'll work with you to evaluate the availability of mechanical lifts, their physical location within the building and the training of employees who use them. We'll also work with you once a lift-related injury has occurred, using sound accident investigation to audit the effectiveness of current safety efforts and prevent future problems from happening.
We can assist you by:
Providing in-service training sessions for management and employees
Conducting lifting assessments
Auditing existing safety programs
Attending safety committee meetings
Drafting and implementing future safety guidelines.
