Use the transfer belt to keep you and your patient safe

Provide your patient a sense of comfort, give you control if the patient starts to slip or fall, and keep you and your patient from getting hurt.
A transfer belt should not be substituted for a standard leather or material belt.

Use a transfer belt for elderly only if

Your patient has recently undergone abdominal surgery, has a colostomy or gastrostomy with a feeding tube directly into the stomach, serious heart or respiratory problems, or cracked ribs.
Always sit your patient up for a few minutes before getting him out of bed if he has been lying flat. Remove the bed covers from the room. Bring the patient close to the bed's side and assist him in pivoting so that he is sitting with his legs dangling over the side. Allow a minute for the patient to sit. Help the patient back to his bed if he feels weak or faint.

Assist the patient with putting on a robe, stockings, and sturdy slippers with low heels and non-slip soles.
Place the buckle of the transfer belt in front of the patient's waist. The belt must always be worn over garments and must never come into contact with the patient's skin.
