“…To maintain or improve quality and safety, it is necessary to regularly monitor these parameters. This is done by using audits with subsequent remedial activities—education [ 45 ], the innovation of aids and equipment for physical handling, and assessments. Undertaking prevention and increasing risk awareness is more effective than dealing with the consequences [ 40 ].…”

Therefore, nurses need to gain competence in moving and transferring patients to prevent endangering their own health [ 18 ].…”

Griffiths () suggests that, besides nurses' technical competence, a positive interpersonal relationship and attentiveness with regard to coaching and educating patients are important. If the focus shifts towards interaction rather than occupational risk assessment, the content of the instruments must be changed.…”
