The patient transfer device has a support surface tiltable about a horizontal axis to facilitate rotation of a patient from the tiltable surface to another surface. The support surface may be cantilevered from a post. The height of the support surface is adjustable, allowing the support to be placed on a bed. The tilting of the support surface facilitates the transfer of the patient from the transfer device to the bed. The transfer device may also be a bed having two sections, each one tiltable towards the other to transfer the patient from one side to the other. The halves may be unitary or separable, allowing one half to be moved away from the other.
