ReTurn Belt Transferring Belt
The ReTurn Belt Transferring Belt is used for sit-to-stand, transfers and gait training procedures. When more support and stability is needed, the belt is an excellent complement to any of the ReTurn Sit-to-Stand Aids. The ReTurn Belt is the belt that doesn’t slide up; it is easily placed around the user's hips and has strong, stable, grip-friendly handles for the carer to hold. The ReTurn Belt is available in several sizes depending on the user's needs.
Safe Support for the User
Where there is a need for greater support and stability, for example when the user's weight-bearing ability is questionable or varies, this belt avoids caregivers needing to overexert themselves during transfer. The ReTurn Belt complements any of the devices from the ReTurn range. However, it can also be used separately for support during sit-to-stand and to stabilise the user in an upright position, for example during standing training, gait training and transfer.
Durable, Moisture-Resistant Fabric
The ReTurn Belt is made from strong and durable polyaramid, and features an anti-slip underside of moisture-repellent, PU-coated nylon. This means that it can be used in environments where moisture and dampness are present, or when there are special demands on hygiene. The fabric also ensures that the belt does not slide up but stays in place.
