Transfers

 

Transferring onto and off of your power chair requires a

 

good sense of balance. Always have an attendant or health-

 

care professional present while learning to properly trans-

 

fer yourself.

 

To eliminate the possibility of injury, Pride recommends that

 

you or a trained attendant perform the following tasks be-

 

fore attempting a transfer:

 

! Turn off the power to the controller.

 

! Ensure your power chair is not in freewheel mode. See

 

III. “Your Power Chair.”

 

! Turn the caster wheels toward the transfer destination

 

to improve power chair stability during transfer.

 

! Make sure both armrests are flipped up or removed

 

from your power chair.

 

! Flip up the foot platform or move the leg rests aside;

 

this will help to keep your feet from getting caught on

 

the foot rigging during the transfer.

 

! Reduce the distance between your power chair and the

 

object you are transferring onto.

Figure 4. Ideal Transfer Position

 

WARNING! Before transferring, position yourself as far back as possible in the power chair seat to prevent the power chair from tipping forward during transfer.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the power chair armrests and do not use the armrests for weight bearing purposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause the power chair to tip, resulting in a fall from the power chair.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the foot riggings. Such use may cause the power chair to tip.

Prescription Drugs/Physical Limitations

Users must exercise care and common sense when operating a power chair. This includes awareness of safety issues when taking prescribed or over-the-counter drugs or when the user has specific physical limitations.

WARNING! Consult your physician if you are taking prescribed or over-the-counter medication or if you have certain physical limitations. Some medications and limitations may impair your ability to operate your power chair in a safe manner.

Alcohol/Smoking

The power chair user must exercise care and common sense when operating his/her power chair. This includes awareness of safety issues while under the influence of alcohol or while smoking.

WARNING! Do not operate your power chair while you are under the influence of alcohol, as this may impair your ability to operate your power chair in a safe manner.
