Transfer Belt Transfer Sling - Padded Gait Belt - Heavy Duty Patient Lift, Mobility Standing and Lifting Aid for Disabled, Elderly, Injured - Safely Move from Bed and Wheelchair(Black)

This is an affordable solution for those that need some help lifting someone! I purchased this for my 76yo/130lb mother who is wheelchair bound and unable to walk/stand on her own. The sling has a wide back which provides a lot of support and the various handles are stitched securely and allow for the greatest leverage. The sling was also able to fit around me- a 5’11, 275lb, man (although the adjustable, snapping, safety strap was a little snug) - so it is sturdy and able to accommodate a heavier person.

This is a great assistance in handling bedridden patients with a minimum of discomfort. It slides easily behind the back, even when the patient is lying down. Two people, ideally, or one, if necessary, can raise the patient to a sitting position. The straps are long enough to reach the end of the bed to provide for a straight pull. The strap can remain in place to hold the patient up while turning to sit on the bed's edge or to allow time for bed cleaning. The strap is wide enough to provide complete support from armpits to waist. I wonder why hospitals and nursing homes don't use these as standard practice.

Never got a chance to use family member passed away first

What a life & back saver! This really helps me maneuver my patient so much easier. I love the different grip options. Good material and sturdy stitching.

Easy to use... Works well assisting my step father from a laying position to sitting and assisting him going down stairs where he doesn't feel like he is failing... Great support

Not for small people, the chest strap doesn’t shorten enough for a small frame

Bought this for my bedbound aunt and it worked really well for repositioning and assisting to sit up. Its sturdy and well made.

Excellent tool in caring for elderly patients

I bought this to help lift my mom up due to her now lack of mobility. Does the job and is very useful. Would recommend. Well made and sturdy.

Excelente.

aunque el tener ambas manos in tocar al paciente causa un poco de inseguridad

Hurt my back in a fall but had to continue caring for my father. This belt stopped all my pains from getting him on to bed. Best method is for caregiver to pull on the outer straps while in an upright position with your back completely straight.

That product works a treat 👍
