Vive 360° Pivot Disc - Patient Transfer Device for Elderly & Disabled | Swivel Turning Board 360 Degree Rotation - Handicap Senior & Stroke Disability Aid - Rotating Lazy Susan Turning Assist Pad

I'VE BEEN USING A TRANSFER DISK FOR AT LEAST 15 YEARS. I PUT MY FEET ON THE DISK AND MY HUSBAND SPINS ME TO TRANSFER. I LOVE THAT THE VIVE 360 PIVOT DISK SPINS EASILY. OTHER DISKS REQUIRE MUCH MORE EFFORT BY MY HUSBAND TO SPIN THE DISK DUE TO THEIR HIGHER FRICTION. USING THE HIGH FRICTION DISKS FOR YEARS HAS INJURED MY ANKLES AND KNEES. THE VIVE 360 DISK IS MUCH EASIER ON THOSE JOINTS. IN ADDITION, BECAUSE THE VIVE 360 DISK HAS A LARGER DIAMETER THAN OTHERS, IT IS MUCH EASIER FOR MY HUSBAND TO GET HIS FOOT ON THE DISK TO SPIN ME. MY ONLY CONCERN NOW IS HOW DURABLE THE VIVE 360 DISC IS AS I'VE ONLY HAD IT FOR 1 DAY. OTHERS SAY THE VIVE 360 DISK IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT SPINS TOO FAST AND TOO EASILY. I THINK ITS THE OPPOSITE. IT'S LESS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT SPINS EASILY AND BECAUSE OF THE LARGER DIAMETER. ITS A MATTER OF TECHNIQUE AND PRACTICE.

My wife didn’t like it for what I had intended to be used for, but I love it because I use it as an exercise device. I do twist on it for my waist.

I was disappointed with the Vive 360° Pivot Disc. While the concept is useful in theory, the disc feels unstable and wobbly, which makes transferring a patient more stressful than helpful. The surface can be slippery, even with non-slip shoes or socks, and it doesn’t provide the level of security I expected. Additionally, the size is a bit restrictive, and heavier patients may find it difficult to balance safely. Overall, it seems more like a risky gimmick than a reliable transfer tool. I wouldn’t feel comfortable relying on it for daily use.

I have no complaints

Bought this to help transition my elderly Mom from the wheelchair, bed and toilet. For the few times that she's feeling weak...this has been a great addition to our transition moments. You do have to be careful in that this thing swings freely and fast. I have to use my feet to stabilize it while she stands on it. Then I am able to swing her left or right depending upon the transition needed. Overall, I would recommend this for use. But, be sure to ask your Physical Therapist how to properly use it for the safety of you and your person.

The disk is large, well made and sturdy. A drawback we found is that compared to others we've used, it spins much too freely. For patients with poor balance or who have difficulty following instructions, we prefer a disk with a little resistance to slow the rotation. I use my foot as a brake but even then, with the large diameter and low friction, it's difficult to maintain adequate control and safety.

once caregivers get used to these disks they are extremely helpful to both the caregiver and the patient

A lot of reviews are nonsense. One person stands on the disc. The second person is doing all the work! The second person needs to be strong enough to hold up the one on the disc, stabilize them, turn them. My mother has partial paralysis and cannot currently walk. We plant both feet on the disc as she sits. Stand her up with our feet on the disc to stabilize and prevent any wobbling or spinning. Holding onto my mother, we control the spinning and when to stop so she can be sitting again. The second person or “spinner” needs to able to fully support the one on the disc or it’s simply not safe.

Fait le job

I bought this item for a friend who looks after his mother on a daily basis, she has just had a hip replacement & this item will be used to help his mother to get out of bed & transfer her to a chair.

Funciona muy bien sólo hay que aprender a usarlo pero es de gran ayuda

Se uso para traslado de personas ya mayores apoyando en la carga y traslado de diferentes lugares, muy eficiente

It worked for me, but it needs care. I put my good foot on it and, holding on to a frame, was able to transfer from chair to bed, wheelchair or commode.
