An incorrect transfer can cause a fall or injury to both the person receiving help and the person trying to lift them.
When a person needs regular assistance to perform transfers, it is advisable to use the technique indicated for their particular needs and, where appropriate, follow the recommendations of rehabilitation professionals.
ACCESSIBLE BEACHES CAN CHANGE THIS EXPERIENCE
In different places there are beaches that incorporate infrastructure intended for people with reduced mobility.
Some have walkways that allow you to cross the sand more easily, while others offer amphibious chairs specifically designed to move over surfaces where a conventional chair would have difficulty.
These solutions allow for increased autonomy and reduce the need for impromptu transfers.
WHAT IS AN AMPHIBIOUS CHAIR?
It is a mobility device designed with special wheels, generally wider than those used by a conventional chair.
Its design facilitates movement on sand and, depending on the model, allows the person to be brought in a controlled manner to the water.
It does not replace supervision or safety measures, but it can make the experience much more accessible.
