How To Perform Wheelchair To Car Transfer

It is necessary to know how to properly transfer techniques to protect yourself and those who under your care.
Caregiver Tips:
☑️ Before starting the transfer, inform the person what you are going to do.
☑️ Slide the seat back, this provides enough room to perform the transfer smoothly.
☑️ It is recommended to use a chair of similar seat height to the wheelchair.
☑️ Stand very closely to the person while you transfer them.
☑️ Avoid slippery footwear.
☑️ If the person you are transferring starts losing control and begins to fall, bend your knees, hold them close and lower them slowly to the nearest safe surface and lastly, call for help.

Lacking emphasis on lifting primarily using legs, & keeping back straight, to prevent back injury.

🌺 HUUUUUGE help ! Leaving my care center Friday. I’m incredibly excited 🌺 Your tips in & out with a slide board are invaluable . Been working on my core & upper body strengths 🌺 Many thanks 🌺

But what if the patient cannot stand at all nor help in any way what so ever and is equally handicapped in the whole of the body = both the legs and upper body cannot help with the transfer to the car at all. How do you make the transfer happen then? What if the patient need to go to the bathroom really fast = it must not take longer than two minutes?

my mother has the same condition, we have to lift her up

[@kimbaker2187]

That client would need to go in a maxi taxi in the wheelchair and not manually transferred. They should be in an electric wheelchair.

Wat if to heavy

[@DeniatitadenCompostela]

Roll the windows down and most people can stand independently.

[@pops5778]

How would I lift my wife who is paralysed down her right side using this method?.

[@suolonatio32]

Great but I want to see her lift him. I have to lift my much heavier father.

[@GingerOreo]

Does not work if the wheelchair bound person is overly obese and is too weak to stand up together with you.

[@heymomm1922]

Okay, then look for another video.

[@konstantinnegrebetskiy3745]

What if the patient is using a walker?

[@shahmudinkarim4910]

war if the person helping is not strong

[@7070NOB]

Not that easy, what if legs are amputated

[@postalapostle6847]

It's depending on how high the amputation on the legs were, so far helping my mom who is below knee amputee it still can works however i think with anything above knee and especially both legs transfering like this need a lifting belt or something similar.

[@jhaneladimirt9590]

Ay talaga sa driver's seat si patient kala ko sa passenger seat sila😅 pano naman kapag metatas ang car 6 seater?

[@sonalchourasia887]

doesnt work with patients who do not move at all.

[@kimbaker2187]

You could never do this with someone with any weight, I work in the industry and would never do this transfer where they are hanging there body weight around your neck, do this repetatively and you will have neck injury. A physio would get a lot of injured support workers as clients if they did this transfer. Not happy.
