The patient transfer device may be adapted to assist a caregiver in moving a patient from a first seated location to a second seated location by holding the patient in an elevated seated position while the patient is moved from a first rotational orientation to a second rotational orientation. The base may rest on a floor to provide stability. The central pole may rise vertically upwards to the ceiling support. The central pole may be extended using the lift system to press the ceiling support against a ceiling to provide additional support. The horizontal handle and the support belt may be adapted to hold the patient in the elevated seated position while the patient is moved.
