[MCOH-EH] Patient transfers from car to wheelchair and vice versa

[Miehe, Julie]

Currently we are using a Stedy from Arjo for these types of transfer. We use more often when with from wheelchair to car as they have something to brace themselves with the arms of the wheelchair.

Small slide board when you can remove arm of wheelchair, placed under buttock , then can slide from car to wheelchair.  Most WC dependent patients use this, however, most hospital wheelchairs arms are NOT removable.  In that case it is more difficult, the stand & pivot method might help, if pt can give some assistance, otherwise lift equipment or lift team to assist Maryann Viereck RN,BS,CEN,COHN-S Employee Health Coordinator Cape Regional Medical Center

Good afternoon.
Can anyone advise on a good piece of equipment to use for getting a patient into or out of a car. Preferably rather small and portable with no slings.
Thanks!

Eileen
