Immobility doesn’t just limit a resident’s movement — it quietly affects nearly every system in the body, from skin integrity to circulation to mood. Staff who understand what’s really happening beneath the surface are far better equipped to prevent complications before they start. Direct Care Training’s Course 1181: Immobility and Positioning builds that understanding from the ground up.
The course covers the neurological, chronic disease, and behavioral causes of immobility, then examines its musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory, and emotional effects in detail. From there, staff learn hands-on prevention: proper positioning techniques, pressure support devices, and early recognition of complications like contractures — with practical interventions for each.
Preventing the downstream effects of immobility starts with understanding them. Give your team that foundation.
