Gait Belt with Handles

A soft webbing belt 2″ wide by 60″ long with a nylon side release buckle and handle loops to assist the therapist when training patients to walk again. Gait belts are often recommended to help caregivers transfer patients or keep them steady as they walk. Pulling a person up from under the arms or by the belt loops can be difficult for the patient and the caregiver. Lifting is more secure and comfortable for the patient when a gait belt is used. A gait belt is also known as a transfer belt.
