Which practice BEST illustrates proper lifting procedures? An x-ray tech lifts a patient from the table, tells them to put their arms around his neck, and then bends and places them in the chair. The nurse bends over and picks up a heavy box. The patient transportation aid uses assistance and a sliding aid to transfer a patient from a stretcher to a bed. A surgical tech is moving a patient to the OR table, he steps back and leans in so that he can grab and pull the patient to the table.
