Title: Patient Aid Gait Belt Rental – Ottawa Transfer Assist
Overview:
This Patient Aid gait belt is a practical transfer assist belt for caregivers, families, PSWs, and rehab users who need safer support during short moves. It is helpful for elderly care, bariatric assistance, physical therapy, post-surgery recovery, and mobility support at home in Ottawa. Designed with padded handles and a quick release buckle, this long adjustable waist sling helps guide standing, walking, repositioning, and bed-to-chair transfers with better grip and control.
What’s Included:
- Patient Aid gait belt with padded handles
- Quick release buckle
- Extra-long adjustable strap, up to 132 cm
- Basic use and safety guidance
Key Features:
- Adjusts up to 132 cm for many body types
- Padded handles give caregivers secure hand positions

Smart Details:
Best results come from placing the belt snugly around the waist over clothing, then using your legs and body position rather than yanking with your arms. It is a support aid, not a full body lift device.
Important Notes:
- Use only with a capable caregiver present
- Do not use on open wounds, fragile ribs, or painful abdominal areas
- Check buckle security before each transfer
- Follow any clinician or physiotherapist instructions
