This video fully explains how to perform the BMAT and TUG assessments to identify limitations in patient mobility. It also explains what impact those results will have on the patient handling and goals for your patients. At Trinity Health Livonia Hospital the BMAT and TUG assessments should be performed on all patients at least once per shift to identify the appropriate mobility interventions specific to each patient.
