SafetySure Bariatric Transfer Belt
The SafetySure™ Bariatric Transfer Belt has features that no other transfer belt offers. Numerous hand grips provide the caregiver a variety of leverage points. The anti-slip interior prevents the belt from moving during the transfer process. The easy-to-fasten metal "Fix-Lock" buckle allows the caregiver to tighten the transfer belt once the individual is in a standing position, without having to open the belt. A buckle cover prevents the buckle from being accidentally unlocked. Weight capacity 450 lbs.
For safer transfers, it is recommended that both patient and caregiver wear a transfer belt. This helps lower patient anxiety and reduce back strain on caregiver.
