Positioning is essential for the well-being and health of people in need of care. Positioning techniques can not only help to prevent pressure sores and skin damage but also support physical mobility and prevent contractures. Regular adjustment of the positions can also improve the quality of life of those who are in need of care. Overall, positioning plays a central role in care.
