A group of nurses are discussing safe patient handling and mobility on the nursing unit in relation to nurses sustaining musculoskeletal disorders

(MSDs). Which statement made by one of the nurses would indicate that additional training was needed?

1 The most common occurrence for MSDs is when nurses are transferring, lifting, or repositioning patients/clients.

2 It is important to maintain body principles when repositioning a patient/

client.

3 If done properly, no nursing action will result in acquiring an MSD.

4 Use of body mechanics while required does not mean that a nurse will not get an MSD.
