A transfer board, also known as a sliding board, is an assistive device used to help individuals with limited mobility transfer between surfaces, such as from a wheelchair to a bed or car seat. It provides a stable, flat surface that bridges the gap between two points, allowing the user to slide across with minimal effort. This tool is particularly useful in reducing the risk of injury for both the user and the caregiver during transfers.
