Use a Samarit transfer boards to bridge gaps up to 20 cm wide. All transfer boards are non-toxic, latex-free, easy to clean and sterilize, and safe and comfortable for patients of all sizes.

Clinical testing of the Samarit Transfer Board found that, compared to other lateral transfer products, use of the device in a hospital setting led to:

  • Reduced biomechanical loading on the lower back
