Ideal For

The SafetySure Wood Transfer Board is well suited for occupational therapists and physical therapists who teach lateral transfer techniques and need a 24-inch double-notched board that is compatible with both standard arm and desk arm wheelchairs for patient training and home program setup. Home health aides and caregivers assisting individuals with limited lower extremity function who require a stable, low-friction surface for bed-to-wheelchair and wheelchair-to-chair lateral transfers will find the smooth lacquered surface and 300 lb capacity appropriate for a wide range of adult users. Patients with spinal cord injuries, stroke-related hemiplegia, or other conditions requiring non-standing lateral transfers who have been trained in sliding board transfer technique will find the double-notch design allows independent use on either side of the wheelchair without requiring a caregiver to reposition the board. DME providers and medical supply retailers stocking transfer boards for home care and rehabilitation settings will find the SafetySure 1157 a consistently available 24-inch wooden transfer board option.
