Patients who have been trained in independent sliding board transfers and need a board that is comfortable to sit on without hard edges tipping up during the transfer will find the flexible plastic design more forgiving than rigid alternatives. DME providers and medical supply retailers stocking transfer boards for home care and rehabilitation settings will find the SafetySure 1172A a consistently available flexible plastic transfer board option.
