This turning disc is helpful when transferring a Patient to or from a wheelchair to a chair/toilet/commode/bed/etc.

The outer discs are made from plastic so it can be used in a bathroom and should not distort if put on a wet floor, but be careful the inside bearings do not get wet.

To Use:

1. Position the wheelchair as close as possible next to the a chair, toilet, etc., that you are transferring the person to or from. Once the wheelchair is in position, ensure the brakes are on and adjust the footplates either by lifting them up, swinging them to the side or removing them. It is possible that the Handi Turn could slip on some floor surfaces when the Patient stands up. This is particularly dangerous if their feet are not either side of the middle of the Handi Turn. To ensure that the Handi Turn does not slip, a Carer should place the edge of their foot on the side of the Handi Turn before the Patient stands up.
2. Place the Patient’s feet on the Handi Turn.
3. Prepare for standing. We suggest using a Handi Lift, Handi Lift Walk Belt or Soft Transfer Belt (all sold separately) to assist with the transfer.
4. Once the Patient is standing, turn the Handi Turn around until the Patient is in position to sit down again. Then you can help lower them into the new chair, toilet, etc.

To service: The two Allen screws can be undone to completely dissemble for wiping clean with a disinfectant.

• To sit on
