To prevent falls during transfers, the wheelchair, bed, shower chair, and stretcher wheels must be locked to keep them from moving while the transfer is taking place. This provides added stability and prevents the possibility of the equipment slipping or rolling away during the transfer. While it's important for the wheels to be fully inflated, be clean, and not squeak, these factors alone are not enough to prevent falls during transfers.
