How to Transfer

When hemiplegic patients transfer from a bed to a wheelchair, they use the non-hemiplegic arm and leg. Keep the wheelchair close to the bed.

   Using the non-hemiplegic arm and leg, get up to a standing position while holding the wheelchair.

   Go close to the wheelchair while holding it, and sit down slowly and safely in the wheelchair.
