At Care Shop, we know how challenging it can be to help clients achieve better movability. Clients who need to use a wheelchair to help them deal with reduced mobility issues can have problems getting in and out of the chair, or transferring from one surface to another. It is not safe to just manually lift the client, but there is plenty of patient handling equipment available to help with this manoeuvre. One option is a transfer board, which allows the individual to safely move from their wheelchair to surfaces including vehicle seats, chairs, and beds.
Care Shop offers quality transfer boards suitable for use in care homes. These items not only make movement safer for clients but also enhance dignity and independence. Transfer boards are a good option for clients who have a reasonable amount of upper body strength. We offer options including the Days Transfer Board which comes complete with handholds, and the Homecraft Curved Transfer Board, which has an arc shape for maximum versatility and ease of positioning.
At Care Shop, we also stock a range of slide sheets to help care staff to move patients safely, with a variety of sizes available. Slide sheets allow for multi-directional movement, and are particularly useful when only a single carer is present.
For more guidance on working with clients with reduced mobility, take a look at our blog, where you'll find helpful posts on how to safely use wheelchairs and lifts and slings in a care home environment.
