It’s advisable to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the most suitable banana board for your specific needs and receive proper training on how to use it safely. Once in place, the Transfer Board Slide will enable you to slide from the surface you are on to the one you want to get to. Comfort and sleeping well are essential not only for the well-being of a person, but also because, for some people, they may mean the difference between being able or unable to carry out activities independently. Curved Seated Transfer Board - 62cm Long x 26cm wide x 1cm thickThe Curved transfer Board is designed to assist in the seated transfer of patients.

HM Revenue and Customs sets out the conditions when equipment for disabled people might be free of VAT and how to claim exemption from paying VAT on these products. Tapered edges will also slip underneath the patient easily, helping to minimise stress and effort level during the transfer. However, the person concerned must have the strength, dexterity and the sitting balance to carry out the task. A sprung mattress with continuous wire edging should not be used, as it will make it difficult to profile the bed.Some discs are made of two flexible fabric discs with a slip-resistant outer surface for standing on, and a slippery inner surface.

Both the pumping or winding action is quite hard work for the carer and the bed occupant can have quite a jerky ride. Sometimes another solution may help instead, or the local council or health service may provide an appropriate service. It may be a complete success, but remember that, because it is a one-off, you cannot try it out first. If the layout of the house permits, it is possible to fix a track (straight, jointed or curved) so that the person can move him/herself (or is assisted to move) in a sling from the bed directly to another room in the house.Floor-standing bookrests are available for people who are lying flat and are therefore unable to hold a book. The Banana Patient Transfer Board is very sturdy and effective, offering maximum support with a top weight capacity of 200kg (31 stone). Single use, disposable Serres suction liner with a 1 litre capacity, made from tough, polyethylene material. If freestanding, care should be taken to ensure that the base is positioned properly under the bed, otherwise the gantry frame may tip over. Curved transfer boards are useful when transferring onto chairs with fixed armrests, as they make it possible to transfer around them.
