Transfer board
A transfer board (or a sliding board) is a device designed for helping those with a physical disability to move from one surface (like bed) to another (like wheelchair). For safe use of a transfer board, the person who is being transferred should be able to participate in the move by sliding over the transfer board, there should be some cushioning in the buttock area for safe transfer.[1]
