Holding the client securely during the transfer is essential to prevent falls and ensure their safety. Therefore, option C is incorrect. Option A is true as adequate padding can prevent pressure sores from developing. Option B is also true, as covering the wheelchair with a folded blanket can prevent the transfer board from slipping. Option D is also true as placing small pillows or cushions behind the client's back can provide support and prevent them from slipping or sliding during the transfer.
