Attendant assistance is recommended and the following advice is relevant:
•
The attendant lifting the occupant should take special precautions to avoid tipping or injuries from lifting,
supporting, turning and lowering the patient.
•
The attendant is responsible for stabilising the wheelchair and must take precautions to prevent the
wheelchair moving or sliding during the transfer, i.e. apply brakes and ensure chair is not in free wheel.
•
Be sure that the seat which is being transferred to is stable and will not create a possible hazard by moving
or tipping when the occupant is raised or lowered. If in doubt, ask for assistance or use a device that will
ensure safe transfer, i.e. patient lifter or transfer board.
