In this study, the transfer process from wheelchair to bed was focused and investigation by comparing expert and non-expert. The 3D motion analysis system was used during transfer process in order to obtain the motion characteristic. The whole transfer was separated into 3 processes to make process analysis. The expert can transfer care-receiver smoothly with a comfortable condition. Using hand support Shoulder bones and hold care-receiver lean forward was considered a current method to adjust care-receiver's position. And the current using method of slide board was also found according to process analysis.
