A long, wide and stable transfer board with glide wing for additional slide function.

The wheelchair transfer board is intended to bridge shorter gaps when performing seated transfers. The boards low friction upper surface allows the user to transfer independently or with assistance. Immedia Transfer Boards are used when transfering between bed and wheelchair / shower chair, between wheelchair / chair / toilet chair or to and from the car. All Transfer Boards have a non-slip surface on the underside. Combining a transfer board with a glide cushion provides even lower friction and is recommended when the transfer involves bare skin, for instance to and from a shower chair or toilet.

Intended Use

The Immedia Transfer Boards support transfer from bed to wheelchair and transfer in and out of the car. It can also be used for transfer between wheelchair, chair, toilet, shower chair, and commode.
