What is your best action to place a resident in the lateral position in bed?

To place a resident in the lateral position in bed, first ensure that the bed is at a comfortable height and the wheels are locked. Gently assist the resident to roll onto their side by having them bend their knees and pushing their hips while supporting their shoulders. Use pillows to provide support behind their back and between their knees for comfort and to maintain the position. Always ensure the resident is safe and comfortable throughout the process.
