Stroke Education Video Series for Therapists

Wheelchair Transfers

30 minute videotape

This program is designed to teach safe and therapeutic methods for transfers in and out of the wheelchair with stroke survivors who need maximum and moderate assistance. Wheelchair transfers can be difficult and a source of back pain and injury to both the patient and the therapist or nurse who is assisting. This program is designed to teach transfers in a way where lifting is not required and injuries are prevented.

This videotape also demonstrates proper methods of helping patients learn to scoot forward and backward into their wheelchair. And, in addition, helping patients get onto high hospital beds.

All of the above methods are clearly illustrated and based upon normal movement.

Topics Include:

• Step-by-step instructions for moderate and maximum assist transfers
• Helping to reposition the person who is 'sliding out' of their wheelchair
• Why things go wrong, what we often miss
• Proper wheelchair positioning
• How to get a small person into a high hospital bed
