You have not used a mechanical lift recently. Which of the 4 S’s applies most?

  1. Supplies, because the lift may be broken or missing
  2. Safety, because you may need more training first
  3. Scope, because lifts are never in a nurse aide's scope
  4. Supervision, because lifts always need two nurses
Show answer

Correct answer: Safety, because you may need more training first
