In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You will need another person to help you support and lift the patient onto the stretcher. Ask a peer, friend, or family member to assist you. Have them stand on the opposite side of the bed so they can support the patient on the side opposite from you. Make sure the top of the stretcher lines up with the top of the patient's bed. Check that the stretcher's wheels are locked and that the patient's bed's wheels are locked as well. Then, raise the height of the patient's bed so it is 1 to 2 inches (25 to 51mm) higher than the stretcher. If the head of the bed is raised, lower it so it sits flat. If the patient can move on their own, ask them to shift to the edge of the bed. If they cannot move on their own, you may need to shift them using your hands and your assistant's help. Guide the patient onto their side, facing away from you. Have the patient bend their legs and keep their arms across their chest as they lay on their side. Make sure the slide board sits under the bottom sheet so the sheet and the patient are both supported by the board. Form a bridge between the bed and the stretcher with the slide board, positioning it so it sits halfway under the patient and halfway out onto the stretcher. Adjust the bottom sheet so it sits over the slide board. Make sure the area around the stretcher is free of any cords, wires, or tubes so you are not at risk of tripping. Ask your assistant to help you by rolling the patient away from them, onto the slide board. Make sure their back is firmly on the bottom sheet and the slide board so they are well supported. Check that the patient's knees are still bent and their arms are still firmly across their chest. Tell the patient that you are going to slide them on the count of 3. Have the assistant lower the guard-rail on their side of the bed. Then, count out loud to "3." On "3," slide the patient across the slide board, onto the stretcher. Your assistant should slide the patient over on their side of the bed. Check that you and your assistant have a good grip on the bottom sheet and the slide board when sliding the patient. It may be necessary for the assistant to get onto the bed to slide the patient over. Make sure they position themselves on their knees on the bed, not on the slide board, to move the patient safely. Once the patient is on the stretcher, roll them over to their side so they are facing you and remove the slide board. Leave the slide board on their bed. Roll the patient onto their back and slide a pillow under their head so they can rest comfortably on the stretcher. Adjust the bottom sheet so it lays flat on the stretcher. Raise the guards up on the stretcher so the patient is supported. Ask them if they are feeling okay on the stretcher to ensure they are comfortable. You may ask, "How do you feel?" or "Feeling okay on the stretcher?" If they answer "yes," you are good to roll them away on the stretcher.
Summary: Get 1 person to assist you. Line up the stretcher with the patient's bed. Shift the patient to the edge of the bed and roll them away from you. Lower the guard on 1 side of the bed and place the slide board under the patient. Roll the patient onto their back so they are supported by the slide board. Slide the patient onto the stretcher with the help of your assistant. Remove the slide board and position the patient comfortably on the stretcher.

Problem: Article: . First things first, you can't really be an effective card counter if you don't know the ins and outs of basic blackjack strategy. Sure, you could count the cards, but it wouldn't result in you winning anything. Try to walk before you run. It's in your favor to practice in casinos, if you plan on counting cards at casinos. Unlike at your kitchen table, there are a ton of other factors going on that must be considered -- like hiding the fact that you're hustling everyone. When you play blackjack with a well-practiced strategy, you get the house's advantage to relatively 0. All casino games are in favor of the house, so this 0 is pretty good! You should be a machine when it comes to this game, spitting out the best thing to do in split seconds. You shouldn't need a book open, you shouldn't need a second to think, and you should be able to do it with one eye closed and both arms tied behind your back. Knowing this game like the back of your hand is the only way you'll make money. Counting cards gives you a one percent edge. If you're betting $100, that's $1 you make per hand. The only way this 1% will result in you banking millions is if you have it down to a legitimate art. General strategy for card counting uses the Hi-Lo strategy. High cards are given a specific value (-1) and low cards are given a specific value (+1). When added up, they total the running count. That's it. The simpler you can keep it, the less your brain will want to explode -- so think of this simplicity as a good thing. Understand why card counting works. It works because high cards (tens) improve a player's chances of hitting a blackjack, which pays out at 3:2. They also increase the dealer's chances of going "bust." Low cards, on the other hand, are bad for the player (who wants a blackjack and to beat the house) but good for the dealer (they prevent them from busting on 16 or lower).
Summary:
Learn basic strategy Get so good at blackjack it's like breathing. Familiarize yourself with the concept of counting cards.
