  • Optional Strap – available for added stabilization during transfer




Product Overview


Patient Transfer Boards provide a simple, effective solution for lateral patient transfers in clinical environments. Designed to bridge the gap between beds, stretchers, and procedure tables, these boards reduce the effort required during repositioning while improving patient stability.


Unlike air-assisted transfer systems, transfer boards operate without power or inflation, making them suitable for quick, controlled transfers in routine or emergency situations. Their rigid structure helps distribute weight evenly across transfer surfaces.


Available in multiple sizes to match patient needs and room constraints, transfer boards are commonly used in emergency departments, imaging suites, surgical units, and long-term care facilities.


For enhanced safety, an optional strap can be added to support patient stabilization during movement.
