I start by having my aide pull me into a long sit. I lift the head of the bed up to make it easier, then I lower the head of the bed. My aide will bring my chair to the side of the bed. |
 |
My aide puts the
slideboard under my hind end. |
 |
I push down on the slideboard to help lift my butt into the air. I lift and push with my left arm and scoot my butt over slowly. |
 |
I get part way over and reposition my hands. I never let my aide get too far away because I have fallen to the right several times. |
 |
I now have no more seat to place my hand, so I use the brake handle. My bed is about 4-6" higher than the chair, a downhill slide always makes it easier. |
 |
I get to this point and scoot my butt back. My aide will then put my feet down, I flip up the armrest and I'm ready to rock and roll. |
