AIN here. One of our patients is for 2x Assist, extremely wobbly on his legs and uses stand up hoist. He won't sleep through the night and often gets out of bed when its at the lowest setting because he keeps falling. He's uncooperative and abusive especially towards non-aussie workers. Can't use the stand up hoist when he's on the floor so we usually have to lift him up on the bed, he's tall and heavy, every night shift I go home with a sore back and shoulders. Dont know how to approach our managers about this because even our RN is just like "just lift him up".
edited for context: I work in a private aged care facility. Managers and RNs know all about his habits but haven't done anything to help us AINs. Family is refusing 1:1 care.
