Safe patient handling and mobility (SPHM) programs comprise policies and equipment that allow staff to care for patients in a way that does not cause strain or injury. When properly implemented and managed, they reduce the incidence of injuries to healthcare workers. Despite this, there can be significant barriers to implementing SPHM programs. SPHM is not universally taught in nursing schools for a variety of reasons, including traditional instruction on body mechanics, faculty unfamiliarity with ergonomics, a lack of SPHM equipment in laboratories, and the use of textbooks that do not include SPHM practices, among others.
conomic environment affects the income level of the people living in the UK. The economy now is in an okay state, but I think could be better.

Porter’s five forces: Attractiveness of the industry
Bargaining power of the supplier
The bargaining power of Dream Academy Performing arts is high because they do not have their own venue, the venues needs to be hired every week to run their session.
