    The man is doing the pushing

      This does show the man doing the pushing but this tool can also be used by caregivers to assist their recipient.
      Keep in mind that there has to be fabric between the board and the person on it. Its impossible to "slide" with bare skin on the board.
      If the user can't put on shorts or pants, you can place a towel or larger pillowcase on the board to help them slide.

    Looks like the patient must still have some mobility or this wouldn't work

      This may or may not be the case. In some cases a person may have mobility but may not be able to stand up, or may be too heavy or nervous to attempt to stand.
      In other cases the caregiver may not feel confident to have someone try to stand, being injured or relatively weak.
      The video shows the "positioning" that both the caregiver and care recipient need to go through in order to complete the transfer regardless of ability.
      Each person will have different abilities.
      What is essential is that the care recipient can actually sit upright with or without support. Otherwise, the transfer board is of no use.

      Your right, depending on the patients condition.
