It gives the caregiver a secure grip instead of pulling on an arm or under the shoulders, which is how both people get hurt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCommon uses: bed to wheelchair transfers, chair to standing, walking and gait training, physical therapy, repositioning, and steadying someone who is unsteady on their feet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImportant, please read\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a caregiver assisted transfer belt. It is not a mechanical lift sling. Do not attach it to a Hoyer lift, a hydraulic patient lift, or any powered lifting device. Full body lift slings are a separate product designed and rated for suspension.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis belt is for people who retain some weight bearing ability and can support themselves partially. Someone who cannot bear any weight needs a mechanical lift, not a transfer belt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCheck the weight rating printed on the belt and stay within it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspect the webbing, stitching and handles before every use. If you find fraying, a loose seam or any change from the last time, stop using it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you have not been trained in safe transfer technique, ask a physical therapist or home health nurse to show you. Most injuries in home care happen during transfers, to the caregiver as often as to the patient.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR VERIFICATION: \u003cbr\u003eType: Transfer Belt and Gait Belt\u003cbr\u003eOperation: Caregiver Assisted\u003cbr\u003eColor: Black\u003cbr\u003eHandles: Yes, Reinforced\u003cbr\u003eLining: Slip Resistant\u003cbr\u003eIntended Use: Patient Transfer, Walking Assistance, Gait Training, Sit to Stand\u003cbr\u003eSuitable For: Elderly, Disabled, Post-Surgical, Physical Therapy\u003cbr\u003eNot For Use With: Mechanical or Hydraulic Patient Lifts\u003cbr\u003eCondition: New","brand":"Generic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45805365559475,"sku":"B-0039","price":159.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/1356\/4339\/files\/db33bebb-991d-42f6-a932-d860d1e2c539.jpg?v=1786292513","url":"https:\/\/aski.deals\/products\/transfer-sling-gait-belt-patient-lift-assist-handles-elderly-caregiver-black","provider":"ASKI Deals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
