What do you if a patient lying on his back slid down in bed and needs help moving up again?

To help a patient lying on his back who has slid down in bed and needs help moving up again, follow these steps:

1. Wash your hands and put on gloves. This will help to prevent the spread of infection.

2. Move to the side of the bed that the patient is lying on. This will give you the best access to the patient and help to prevent you from straining your back.

3. Bend your knees and place your feet shoulder-width apart. This will help you to maintain your balance and avoid putting unnecessary strain on your back.

4. Place one hand under the patient's head and neck and the other hand under the patient's hips. This will help to support the patient's body and prevent them from sliding further down in bed.

5. Gently lift the patient's head and hips at the same time. Be sure to use a slow and steady motion to avoid jerking the patient.

6. Continue lifting the patient until they are in a comfortable position. Be sure to support the patient's head and neck at all times.

7. Once the patient is in a comfortable position, adjust their pillows and covers. This will help to ensure that the patient is comfortable and safe.

8. Wash your hands again and remove your gloves. This will help to prevent the spread of infection.

NOTE: If the patient is unable to move on their own, or if you experience pain or discomfort while trying to move the patient, call for assistance from a healthcare provider or caregiver.
