INVALID TRANSFER ARRANGEMENT

摘要

Apparatus used in conjunction with a bed and having rollers and a transfer sheet to transport a patient over the bed and partially onto a horizontal seat of a wheelchair. The patient is then raised to a normal seated position, without requiring any effort on the part of the patient. The patient can also be transported to a sitting position at the end of the bed, or to a standing position on the floor. The apparatus is arranged for installation on existing hospital or home-type beds so that a patient can be comfortably transported to a seated position on a wheelchair, commode, surface, or to a seated or standing position at the end of the bed.
