The University of Indiana's School of Nursing makes a very clear statement about professionalism; which of the following does it NOT believe? That professionalism implies respect and courtesy for others in the classroom and clinical settings

That the manner in which nursing students speak and present themselves will either elevate or diminish their professional image

The manner in which one nursing student acts in the community affects the way in which the community views all nursing students

That a nurse's commitment to professionalism begins the day they start work in their new career

It starts with commitment. the health and safety policy is the commitment by the employer to provide and maintain a safe workplace. the commitment of the workforce is also a necessary component.when the workplace parties sit down to develop an ergonomic approach to patient handling, they will develop terms of reference that set forth how the health and safety committee will function in approaching this problem and reach its goal of reduced injuries.in general, a safe patient handling program will involve the following steps: management approval and commitment to develop and implement a patient handling program.perform a needs analysis.create and standardize patient assessment criteria.develop decision trees to standardize actions.determine which controls are needed to implement specific tasks or patient needs.institute a "no-lift" policy, where possible.
