Transfer boards also known as sliding boards are commonly rigid, flat boards made of wood or plastic. The board acts as a bridge to allow individuals to move from one seated surface to another such as moving from a wheelchair to a bed. Transferring in this fashion allows the user to move with small gradual movements versus one large motion. The aim in using a transfer or sliding board is to support independence for the user. | |||
