the patient. Secure the TurnTable in
place, before raising the patient, by
placing the ball of your foot on the
TurnTable and your heel on the floor.
Steer the TurnTable by pushing with the
front of the foot and braking with the
heel. When the patient is about to sit
down, secure the TurnTable in place as

When transferring from bed to
wheelchair, place the wheelchair
close to the bed, so as to minimize
transfer distance.

the patient’s pants up/down when
the patient has risen slightly from the
seat. Preferably, two caregivers should
