• The Samarit Tetraglide is perfect for those who need assistance in moving from bed to wheelchair/chair, chair to wheelchair/bed, and wheelchair to chair/bed.
• The lightweight construction of the board makes it easy to use and allows service users to transport without difficulty.
• Although lightweight, the sliding transfer board supports weights up to 200 kg, making it a long-lasting, durable solution for almost all users.
• The sliding transfer board has a unique fish-tail design, which has proven popular in many fields, although it was originally designed for quadriplegics.
• Most competitive models do not fit around wheelchair wheels, which creates frequent challenges for many users.
• However, the fish-tail design of this transfer board helps the board fit around the wheels of the wheelchair, making transfers easier than ever.
