 A
Proven Approach to Regulatory Compliance
Australia - Global Leader in Patient Handling
Australia is one of the countries at the forefront to impose
standards of patient handling to reduce injuries to both patients
and provider personnel.
O'Shea
is the Leader in Australia
Australian RN, Louise O'Shea developed the O'Shea No Lift
System in 1996, based on her hospital experience as both a
nurse and health and safety advisor.
Her approach was unique in its focus on the often conflicting
interests of multiple constituencies common to most healthcare
environments.
Today, 90% of state government facilities in Victoria, Australia
use the O'Shea System.
It's More than Just Training
Highly adaptable, the O'Shea System was developed to be customized
to specific health care settings and to varying levels of
governmental and institutional regulations. Each implementation
of the O'Shea System addresses organizational, environmental,
staff and patient risk factors associated with patient handling.

Reduces Injuries and Costs
Safe patient handling is a win-win for medical facilities
because it reduces patient injuries, personnel injuries and
personnel recruitment costs.
Not only does the O'Shea System improve a facility's bottom
line by reducing costly worker's compensation claims and the
risk of patient suits, but employees at these facilities report
higher job satisfaction.
