LAMBOX Gait Belt Transfer Belt with 7 Nylon Padded Handles, Medical Nursing Safety Gait Assist Device for Elderly, Seniors, Physical Therapy (7 Soft Black Handles 60",Plastic Release Buckle)

My wife has terminal MBC. Her ability to walk on her own has now diminished to a point that she needs help. Our daughter does physical therapy work on the other side of the country. She advised us to look into gate belts as a precaution for falls. We did a lot, including speaking with a local physical therapist, to see what gate belt we should get. I found this one, here on Amazon and sent the link to our PT. She said she had never used one but it could be great as it has loads of durable handles. We ordered and received and were more pleased than we thought we would be with our choice.This belt has a VERY durable build design and the material quality is better than what we use at the hospital. It is a little bigger than a traditional belt but the size of it made my wife feel like she was in a safer situation.We took the belt with us to PT a couple of days and and even our PT said it was fantastic. She even asked for the link to be able to order more.In the end, you can't go wrong with this belt if you are in the spot we are.

This really was a life saver on 2 occasions. My husband had a couple of strokes this past summer and he would lose his balance and he didn't even have strength to get up out of a chair and one night. I came to check on him and he had fallen on the floor getting app out of the chair and he had been there for a number of hours and this was the only thing that was able to help me get him up. And it happened another time. But I was right there when it happened. But he had already fallen, but this was really a life. Saver to get him back up as well. I take it to physical therapy with him. So when he's walking the therapist can hold on to him

This is a great quality gait trainer! Velcro is nice and strong and the handles are attached greatly!

If you have a bad knee wrap these around your ankle and dangle and it will pull on your knee and make it feel much better

This has been a very helpful gait belt. My husband is smaller than me and it helps us both feel more comfortable and safe. The padded handles are big enough for you to grab in a flash. The only issue I have noticed is that the band will loosen and I have to readjust it each time otherwise it seems well made, no loose threads and nice thick fabric. The big thumbs up is that it doesn't pinch me like the thinner gait belts do.

This gait belt works great!! Helped get my wife off the floor when she fell. Great in assisting someone who is weak get up from a chair.Would recommend and would buy again!

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.

Good handles, our client found it uncomfortable though
