ABSTRACT:
The chair of a transfer bench includes a single removable arm and four rollers attached to the underside of the chair by four multipurpose brackets. The single arm can be easily mounted on the right or left side of the chair so that the open side of the chair always faces toward the patient regardless of the orientation of the chair on the bench. Each of the roller brackets is fastened directly to the bottom of the chair for additional simplicity and strength. Two spring-loaded safety hooks on the underside of the chair allow the chair to be removed from the bench, rotated 180.degree., and safely remounted on the bench but facing in the opposite direction. A downwardly extending locking stud attached to the underside of one of the tubular tracks of the bench can be engaged by one of the spring-loaded safety hooks to keep the chair from moving when a patient attempts to sit in the chair.
