Effectiveness of Web-Based Training (SERT)

Independent Transfer Training Program: ITTP training starts with an overview and self-evaluation using the transfer assessment instrument questionnaire (TAI-Q) followed by three core modules: wheelchair setup, body setup, and flight/landing. Wheelchair setup includes factors such as the angle and distance of the wheelchair to the transfer surface, removing barriers, applying the brakes, and height of the transfer. Body setup involves positioning one's body for an optimal transfer and covers foot, hip, arm and hand positions. Flight/landing discusses how to achieve a smooth and controlled transfer, the head-hips relationship, use of transfer device, and safe landing.
