Transfer aids include practical products for transferring, changing position, rising, and positioning in everyday life. The category includes, among other things, transfer belts with handles, leg lifters, slide sheets, transfer boards, bed straps, turning cushions, and transfer sheets with handles. The products have different functions and designs to suit different types of movements and surfaces.

Slide sheets and transfer sheets

Slide sheets are used for changing position and lateral transfers and are available in various sizes and designs. The assortment includes both smaller slide sheets and larger tubular models. The smooth construction reduces friction between surfaces and facilitates the actual transfer. Transfer sheets with multiple handles provide several grip points along the sheet and are designed for controlled transfer movements.

Belts, straps, and bed straps

Transfer belts with handles provide clear grip opportunities during assisted transfers. Leg lifters are designed to lift and position a leg, while bed straps can be used when rising from a lying to a sitting position. Transfer aids in this group are compact and easy to store between uses.

Transfer boards and turning cushions

A transfer board creates a stable bridge between two surfaces during lateral transfers, such as between a bed and a chair. Turning cushions with support handles are designed for positioning and turning and have a shape that provides support around the legs during the movement. The dimensions, materials, and grip functions of the products differ between models, making it important to compare product information before choosing.
