This sturdy wood transfer board will help transfer people from wheelchair to bed, chair, car or commode. The sealed and coated board allows easy transfers to help the patient slide across the glossy surface. The board is also valuable as a mobility aid for those who are living independently and need assistance transferring place to place. TO USE A TRANSFER BOARD – Position one end of the board on the starting point and the other end on the destination to which you want to transfer such as the bed, chair, car or wheel chair. The tapered ends should be facing up to help the person slide onto the board. Try to keep the board as level as possible and be sure to lock any wheelchairs in place. Help the person onto the board then assist them as they slide across it in short movements. We highly recommend using the DMI Gait Belt in conjunction with this board to help assist moving the person. Be sure the person is dry to avoid any friction while transferring. Always consult a trained professional if there are questions about using a transfer board. Only attempt using if you have been properly trained.

Nice lite board
Works as it should, more lite than the one I got from rehab, sturdy and long enough to reach my chair to and from the car seat..

Great Tool For Mobility
I am recovering from bilateral quad ruptures. This tool is well made. Sturdy, smooth finish. It enables me to independently slide to/from bed, couch, chair onto a wheelchair or commode. It probably would provide a means for two people to lift an injured person who is sitting on it. It has tapered ends to make it easier to slide on to it and it has two handhold cutouts. I highly recommend!

My experiences with the board …long review.
I have had this board for 1 1/2 months now, here are some things I’ve discovered while using it. Being upfront from the start, transfers with the board still make me feel somewhat uneasy, but that is mostly due to not having used it enough to get confident on the transfers. If I don’t feel safe, I’m not budging, and the board in rehab after surgery was narrow, and the gap I had to cross was looking like the grand canyon and I refused to even attempt it. The OT there was not too happy with me to say the least, but I didn’t budge.I am a double above the knee amputee, so if you have legs, some of this might not apply to your situation.For every PRO, there might be a CON as well :)PROS:1. VERY sturdy, this board is not gonna bend under a heavy load (rated up to 735 lbs)2. Slick and smooth, which makes sliding easier.3. Length is good, you can span an area and still have coverage from where you are coming from to where you are going.4. Heavy but not horrendously so, its easy to lift and move.5. Handholds are good for helping you get lined up, and for moving the board, as it makes carrying it very easy.6. Grip pads on bottom help prevent the board from sliding on the surfaces.7. Makes an excellent temporary table top 🙂 I put it across the top of the arms of myÂ

Transfer board is lightweight and a thick solid piece of wood. Better than other transfer boards I’ve used. Love it.
