New Employee Orientation - The Mandt System- Technical Skills (4)

The Mandt System's technical skills focus on safely managing physical interactions using body mechanics, balance, and movement, with a goal of minimizing or eliminating the need for physical restraints. Key technical skills include: understanding the three general concepts of stance and balance, body mechanics and movement, and body positioning in relation to others; the ability to perform physical movements like maintaining balance while being pushed or moving; and implementing physical support or restrictive techniques only as a last resort for safety, with an emphasis on immediate discontinuation once the risk has subsided.
