Activities of Daily Living

transfers and mobility to accomplish life.

Activities of daily living are part of everyone's life. With no limitations, however, we never realize the foundation upon which we are successful.

Successful transfers and mobility are necessary to be able to then carry out these useful and needful routines in life.

From bed mobility and transfers, walking ability, wheelchair mobility and transfers to shower transfers and car transfers, these activities can not be successfully and safely attempted without the solid and safe foundation from which they are performed.

Although each transfer and mobility technique discussed on this site should be customized by a home health care physical therapist, I have tried to include the basic tips and education that will accomplish some degree of success in what you are attempting to do.

Please use your good judgment. Some patients are unable to accomplish the given transfer due to their particular disability. Please also remember that some caregivers may not be strong enough and/or simply lack the ability to accomplish any given transfer.

Knowledge is power but not necessarily success. I'm hoping that your life will climb to a higher level of ease and ability with the information that you find at my website.
