A device to position a patient in a selected body position, such as a Trendelenburg or flexed position, on an operating table. The device includes a board, shoulder supports removably coupled to and extending substantially perpendicular from the board, and a cushioning mat positioned to lie between the patient and the board and the shoulder supports when the patient is placed on the device. A locking mechanism removably couples the shoulder supports to the board to allow the cushioning mat to lie flat when the shoulder supports are decoupled from the board and thereby selectively provide access to a neck and shoulders of the patient when the patient is placed on the device.
