BeasyTrans Systems, Inc. Transfer Boards

Moving a person from a wheelchair to a bed, car seat, or commode is one of the most physically demanding tasks a caregiver faces — and one of the most common causes of falls and lifting injuries. BeasyTrans Systems, Inc. designs seated transfer aids built around a simple idea: the person shouldn't have to be lifted at all. A rotating disc that glides along a curved track lets the user slide across the board with minimal friction, so weight is carried by the board rather than the caregiver's back.

This is what sets a BeasyTrans board apart from a traditional flat slide board. Instead of pushing dead weight across a stationary surface, the built-in swivel seat moves for you, closing the gap between two surfaces of different heights or angles. That matters for anyone with limited upper-body strength, painful joints, or the inability to bear weight through the legs — and for the caregiver who needs to complete several transfers a day without strain.
