SITTING TRANSFER BOARD

The Transatlantic curved board is a tool that helps people move from one seated position to another while remaining seated. It has a wide range of uses, such as helping to move from a wheelchair to a bed or from a wheelchair to a car. It is a valuable aid for those who may have difficulty completing the transfer without assistance.
The transfer board, which is curved in shape, makes patient transitioning between beds, chairs, wheelchairs, and car seats simpler than it had ever been.
This curved board is especially created to provide users with a convenient way of transitioning from one sitting area to another and restoring their autonomy, regardless of if they are dealing with limited mobility or healing from an operation. This curved sliding board is incredibly sturdy and resilient, having a remarkable maximum user weight capacity of 200kg (31.49 stone), making it suitable for almost anyone.
These curved sitting transfer boards, created with the help of esteemed therapists, have already been sold in their thousands – the reasons for which are easy to understand. Their lightweight structure and comfortable design make them a breeze to transport, either with or without assistance. As an additional bonus, they are small enough to store and straightforward to keep clean, perfect for long-term, regular use.

The colour of these boards are also a unique feature as they boast a cool grey to avoid bringing attention to the nature of the product.
