Aide pour faciliter le lever

This belt is great except that I can’t make it as small as I would like for my mom who was pretty tiny. Nonetheless, the seven handles on the sides and back are great for helping to lift her out out of the chair so she can use the walker and she feels more secure when we walk.

My husband has a bit of a gut and I find that I can't get the belt tight enough to have a secure lift. When he does stand up, the belt falls down to his ankles. I can see it working once I get the tightness sort out. Any hints would be appreciated.

I was not comfortable using the gaiter belt rehabs give out to use when assisting someone with transfers. They look like strapping tie downs and are a pain to adjust. With this belt, you determine the fit just once and click it into place very quickly and safely. The multiple handles means you can safely stand in various spots and get a nice firm grip. We used this at drs office and they thought it was a terrific device for safe transfers...especially for two persons assisting. The ot and pt therapists all raved about how well this belt works.
