Transfer Boards

Transfer boards designed to assist patient transfer in a variety of situations. We have versions for the bedroom, around the house or to help getting in and out of cars. A patient transfer board is useful equipment for moving an individual from bed and onto a wheelchair or commode. Transfer boards for disabled people have low friction, sliding surfaces to allow swift and easy movement. A banana transfer board provides a curved slide-platform, which in some situations is preferable to a straight board. Slide transfer boards like those available here are important pieces of equipment, especially for wheelchair users.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a Transfer board do?

A transfer board (sometimes called a sliding board) is a flat, smooth board that helps people move between two seating surfaces — for example, from a wheelchair to a bed, wheelchair to a toilet, or wheelchair to a car seat — without having to stand up.

How Does It Work?

The board acts like a bridge between the two surfaces. The person sits on the board, then shuffles or slides across it, using their arms to help push themselves along (with or without assistance from a carer).

This is particularly useful if the person:

Can’t bear weight on their legs.
Has difficulty standing.
Needs help with transfers but doesn’t require a full hoist.

Who Can Use a Transfer Board?

It’s ideal for people who:

Have good upper body strength.
Can lean slightly to one side to position the board.
Need to transfer between similar height surfaces (like a wheelchair and bed that are roughly level).

When It’s NOT Suitable

A transfer board may not be safe if the person:

Can’t sit upright.
Has very weak arms.
Needs to transfer between uneven surfaces (for example, from a low wheelchair to a high bed).
Has fragile skin (as friction can cause skin damage).

Benefits

Reduces lifting strain on carers.
Increases independence for some users who can transfer themselves.
Simple, low-tech, and portable.

Can you use a Transfer Board by yourself?

Yes, some people can use a transfer board by themselves, but it depends on their strength, mobility, and balance.

You might be able to use a transfer board independently if you:

Have good upper body strength, particularly in your arms and hands (as you need to push yourself along the board).
Can lean to one side to position the board correctly.
Have good sitting balance, so you can stay upright safely during the transfer.
Are transferring between two stable surfaces of similar height (for example, a wheelchair and a bed at roughly the same level).
Are familiar with using the board and confident in your technique.

When you shouldn’t attempt it alone

You may need help from a carer if:

You have weak arms or limited hand function.
You have poor balance or feel unsteady sitting upright.
The surfaces are uneven, unstable, or at significantly different heights.
You’ve recently had surgery (e.g., hip surgery) where twisting or uneven weight-bearing is restricted.
You’re new to using a transfer board and haven’t been shown the correct technique by a physiotherapist or occupational therapist.

Top Tip:

Even if you’re confident using the transfer board independently, it’s a good idea to have someone nearby, especially if your condition varies day to day, just in case you need a little assistance or reassurance.

Are Transfer Boards safe?

Yes, transfer boards are safe — when used correctly and in the right situations. They are a tried-and-tested way to help people move between seating surfaces (like from a wheelchair to a bed, toilet, or car) without needing to stand up. However, like any piece of equipment, they are only safe if:

They are used correctly

The board must be positioned securely — it should rest firmly on both surfaces, with no risk of slipping.
The user (or carer) must understand the correct technique for sliding across.
If help is needed, the carer should know how to assist safely, without pulling or dragging the person.

They are used in the right situations

Transfer boards are best suited for people who can sit up steadily and have enough upper body strength to help slide themselves across the board.
They work best when the surfaces (for example, wheelchair and bed) are at a similar height.

They can become unsafe if...

The person using the board is too weak to support themselves.
There’s too big a gap between the two surfaces.
The person can’t sit upright safely.
The board slips because it wasn’t positioned properly.
Friction causes skin damage (especially if the person has fragile skin, which is common in older adults).

Safety Tips

Always follow guidance from a physiotherapist or occupational therapist if you’re unsure.
Use a non-slip mat under the board if necessary.
If transferring alone, keep a phone or alarm close by, just in case help is needed.

In short: Transfer boards are safe when used correctly for the right person in the right situation — but they’re not suitable for everyone. If you’re not sure whether one is safe for you (or someone you care for), it’s worth getting advice from a healthcare professional.
