Types of Transfer aids[edit | edit source]
Turn Tables / Manual Standing Aids[edit | edit source]
Most turn tables have knee blocks and handles to allow the person to participate.
Electric Standing Aids[edit | edit source]
Electric stand aids come in many forms but their aim is to allow a person to actively participate in their stand whilst providing full support. These can either allow someone to stand onto a platform as part of the equipment or directly onto the floor to allow for stepping practice.
