Transferring! Climbing Stairs! - Spinal Cord Injury

- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Hey everyone! This week I am talking about and demonstrating transfers. Transferring is a great skill to learn to gain more independence and to be able to access more places. At the beginning I used to use a transfer board to get from my wheelchair to other places. Over time I didn't need to use the transfer board. It definitely takes times to transition from the board to nothing.
I enjoy doing floor transfers so I can go up and down stairs to get into homes without ramps and also to be on multiple levels. There are many different ways to get up and down from a wheelchair. Keep on trying and trying until you find a technique that works best for you. My physical therapist showed me how to get up from the side of my chair and it didn't work that well, but once I kept on practicing I was able to find a technique that works best for me. Keep on trying and you'll get it! :D

Hello ! I am a nurse and your compilation of the different transfers is extremely interesting and enriching for my job. I think I'm using it for some of my patients...Thank you and...good song at the end. I don't know who sings, but I love it. Kiss from France!
Glad you find them to be enriching and helpful! Thank you for all that you do to help others find independence and progress :) Heroes Tonight by Janji ft. Johnning
@@JackInAction Thank you very much for your comment and for the title of the song and the name of the band. A beautiful discovery! I love 😘
You can get Shazam by the way.
@@JackInAction Hi Jack, how are you doing my friend? Your a hero!!! Thank you for posting this video!!! Nice family. Transferring your wheelchair to your dining table is a great thing to learn. So important to transfer your body by taking a shower, washing up, back into your bed and then onto the wheelchair. Nice Christmas stockings. It’s good that you are learning your floor transfer. It’s good that you are able to get back on. Kind regards, from, PaulLaw.
also a good idea to random check the derrière for any issues after doing these
there is always a "Plan B" on doing these......good demo on how you do them :)
True! B is for Board, Transfer Board :D
@@JackInAction .....lol.......didnt think about that .....B could also be used as a "B"UTT reminder...plan.....
Looking good mate !
Thank you! I gotta start uploading more again :p how are you?
Wow! Awesome transfers!
I have to check if can I climb up stairs useing hands like You. Keep going!
You're an inspiration my friend 👍✌
good job ..:)
This is great stuff! Do your abdominal muscles work? Ho long did it take you to learn all this?
Hey. Nonhlanhla! My abdominal muscles work a little bit! I definitely need to strengthen them more :) It took me a year or two to learn transferring with the board and then after that I learned how to go without it!
Great
Thank you!
@@JackInAction Hi Jack, how are you doing? Your doing great!!! It’s good that you made it to the top of the stairs up and down. Glad you did it!!! Well done!!!! Kind regards, from, PaulLaw.
Suggest me how to prevent pressure sores please.. I got one Nd it’s not going
I hope you are able to heal up. Thank you for the suggestion! I will definitely make a video on pressure sores for January 26th!
Are you okay? You definitely need to speak with your doctor and therapist to help you find solutions that work for you. You need to also make sure that you are doing pressure relief (I am not sure how often) by shift your weight around or lifting up from your chair. Some manual wheelchairs and power wheelchairs also have some pressure relief features if you need that assistance.
@@JackInAction Hi Jack, how are you doing? Hope your O.K. Do you have any suggestion how to prevent pressure sores please… kind regards, from, PaulLaw.
Are you able to safely stand using the table as some support and using your other arm to bring the chair close to you instead of having to hop so much?
I can’t walk or stand like that. It’s safer for me to hop.
Hey, thatwas great! What if there isn't anyone to bring you your chair? Do yo lift it up, too, or doyou have 0a 2nd oneat home, each in every stock?
Hi Jack what is your cushion model and dimension ? Please share ... I am planning to buy one Roho and would like to see your choice and recommendation
I believe it's a J3 cushion! Mine is about 16inches wide and 19inches long! Do you have a therapist or seating person that can help measure you custom to your cushion? :)
JackInAction so your is not a full air cell cushion ? I thought you have full air Roho
JackInAction I know my dimensions as I have one Roho but I was thinking for an upgrade
@@JackInAction Hi Jack, how are you doing my friend? What is your cushion model and dimension? Please share some ideas with me!!! I would like to see your your choice of recommendation. I would like to buy one. You have a very nice family. Please say hello to your family please. Kind regards, from, PaulLaw.
It's great that you have such powerful arms.
You must wear out all your jeans in the seat!
