@kameronsarah: It took about four minutes to transfer my dad from his wheelchair to his bed. If transfers scare you, you’re not alone. A lot of caregivers feel that way. I have some medical training, but the biggest thing I’ve learned isn’t technique. It’s confidence. When you move with calm confidence, they often follow your lead. Add patience. A lot of patience. Encouragement. Reassurance. Letting them feel safe. You don’t have to rush. You don’t have to be perfect. If your loved one feels safe with you, they will usually cooperate in their own time. You can do this. One calm step at a time. 💙
