How would you transfer an elderly person from a chair to their bed?

To transfer an elderly person from a chair to their bed safely, first ensure the bed is at a suitable height and clear of obstacles. Assist the person to a standing position, using a gait belt if available for support. Encourage them to use their stronger side to pivot, while you provide steady support at their back and under their arms. Once they are positioned at the edge of the bed, guide them to sit down gently, ensuring they are comfortable and secure.
