Two frequently used patient transfer techniques were task analysed. An observational system, incorporating these analyses, was developed to evaluate systematically the safety with which nurses, aides and attendants lifted and transferred physically handicapped patients. The reliability, cost effectiveness and practical application of this procedure are discussed.
