Inventing Health

Sometimes the nurse might not have the help or the strength needed to move a patient safely and they might risk getting hurt in the process and causing more injury and discomfort to the patient. Medical staff are people too and not everyone has the same upper body strength and patients come in different sizes and weights and how difficult it may be to move them may be compounded by whatever medical difficulties the patient may be having. The video provides examples of various medical units that may find this device especially useful and after watching the video you may understand why. 

While most of us may think that maintaining ample blood flow throughout one’s limbs at all times is great there is another invention that one can learn about that is intended to prevent that. Why? Well, you can find out by watching the video to learn more about the invention to push the blood away from the limbs and the reason. It sounds like it could be risky, but in some situations, it could be worth it and effective .

There are many other interesting things in the video you might want to check out. One thing I thought of after watching this video was the verse. “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:” Ecclesiastes 3:1. Something that may be helpful at one time in life might be harmful in another. We should want to exercise tact and wisdom when applying medical solutions, but it is also true if we want healthy relationships. Sometimes we must get creative in how we offer support and question if we are able to do something ourselves or if we need to get someone extra professional support to be effective. Something that may be nice to say in one context could be rude in another. We need to use wisdom in life.
