Transfer Board and Slide Board for Patient, Senior, Handicap Move Assist

The sturdy wood transfer board is a valuable tool that allows caregivers to safely and easily transfer patients from a wheelchair to a bed, chair, car, commode, or any other sitting position. This sealed and coated board provides a glossy surface that facilitates smooth transfers for the patient. It is also an essential mobility aid for individuals living independently who require assistance moving from place to place.

To use the transfer board, position one end on the starting point and the other end on the destination, ensuring the tapered ends are facing up to help the patient slide onto the board. Keep the board as level as possible and secure any wheelchairs in place before assisting the patient onto the board. Utilize short movements to help them slide across, and consider using the DMI Gait Belt for additional support.

It is important to ensure the patient is dry to prevent any friction during the transfer process. If there are any questions about using the transfer board, it is recommended to seek guidance from a trained professional. Only attempt to use the board if you have received proper training to avoid any potential risks.

The slide board provides secure, safe, and easy transfers, making it ideal for disabled individuals, those who are wheelchair-bound, the elderly, or those recovering from surgery. The cutout handles on the board offer additional leverage with a comfortable and secure grip, as they have been rounded, sanded, and sealed for optimal comfort.

Constructed from thick, sanded, and sealed Scotch Pine wood, the transfer board ensures frictionless transfers while preventing cracks, chips, or snagged clothing. Each board has tapered ends and a smooth surface coating for added durability. With overall dimensions of 30 x 8 x 1, the board has a weight capacity of 440 pounds and is FSA eligible.
