Posey 6537Q Transfer Belt, Black with Green Economy Model – Extra-Wide Soft Nylon – Washable Walking Belt & Gait Transfer Belt – Medical Supplies for Nurses, Therapists & Home Care Caregivers (6537Q)

I have been an ER nurse for 36 years and taking care of elderly disable parents for the last two. And of course, all hospitals say they are no lift facilities! Inside joke. I have used all kinds of various gait belts over the years and this Posey is by far the best constructed and most versatile. It is also a very good buy for only $27. I very much like the sewn on heavy duty straps that can be utilized with various sit to stand mobility aids/lift device; or with my mom who was total dead weight, and very hard to get in the car by myself, found it super easy to grab the two side handles and lift and pivot her into the car .I wish I would have found this years ago!!! Life would have been much easier. I recently recommended this to a patient's family and they bought one and loved it too. They remarked how nice it was that they could accompany their weak and unsteady parent each holding a side handle of the belt as they were helping them walk a short distance or when they were transferring him from a bed/chair to a wheel chair.. It gave them much better control over the situation helping them prevent a fall injury to their parent. Also, the belt is adjustable from smaller stature to larger people. My mother is a 128# and my dad 275# and had no issues using this belt with their size discrepancy. A very worthwhile buy!

Works well for use with my granddaughter. Love material.It's comfortable and sturdy for the both of us

Recommended by Skilled Nursing Company to help caregivers handle my 95 yr old Mother-in-Law who is a fall risk. It's comfortable to wear and easy to put on and easy to use. Several handles makes it easy to hold onto her from just about any angle.

Same belt physical therapy uses! Sturdy and it has come in handy!

Love this product I only wish the buckle wasn’t directly in front I accidentally pushed the belt release button once while helping my elderly patient go from sit to stand luckily I’m quick and grabbed the belt itself on either side

Works well. PT's love it - some have used them before, others have never seen them before but after using them they liked them as well. Works great especially when you use it on the same person -- i.e., no adjusting each time -- and the hand holds are great if more than 1 person is helping hold the person. You can grab anywhere. Would be nice to have 1 or 2 more in the front, but this works

Handles are hard to reach on heavier person, ~250 lbs. The belt twists while using.

Moving an older person is difficult but this product really makes it easier. Arrived in great condition.
