What is Anatomical Position?

Clarifying directional terms like left and right is crucial when working with patients and healthcare teams. For instance, saying "move to the right" can be confusing since it refers to the patient's right side, not the provider's. 

Using phrases like "your right" or "my left" when giving instructions is helpful to avoid misunderstandings and ensure effective communication. This not only enhances teamwork but also improves patient care.
