Patient Aid Transfer Sling - Moving Assist Hoist Gait Belt Harness Device with Heavy Duty 400lb Weight Capacity, Padded Handles, Extended Length & Width - 8" x 23.5", Slip-Proof Lining

Worked like a dream helping a parent after heart surgery. It’s built very well, nice and wide for their comfort and thick handles helping you help them.

Had to help Husband out of chair and bed , really helped with pulling him from bed or chair!

Liked the padding, however it was not long enough. My patient is quite large and the belt needed to be a little longer in order to go around and get a good pull. Also tried to use it as padding for the thinner but longer gait belt. Did not work. But it was not designed for that. Another however, I was able to use it twice to help her get situated. Could not use it to help get her up after a fall ... BUT that was primarily because of her bad knees. The 911 crew used it as an anti-skid when getting her up off the floor. So it has served it's purpose, but I don't believe in what it was designed for. I still owe you for it cause I tried to return it but you said keep it and refunded my money anyway. Let me know how I can refund the refund. :-)

I really wanted this to help my husband get out of his wheelchair. I am not a 90 lb weakling but I could kill myself trying to use this..Another donation for the senior center closet

I am so pleased with this transfer sling! I use it to move an elderly family member (220 lbs) who cannot stand. It is well-made and sturdy. This product has made our lives much easier and delayed our need for a Hoyer lift. What I do is position this sling a little bit under his hips so he’s just barely sitting on it. Then, either by myself or with an aide (each of us takes a handle) we transfer him from the bed to the wheelchair. Earlier, I moved him from from sitting at the foot of the bed to the top of the bed (a better position to lay down) all by myself tonight using this sling! This task used to be impossible for me to do without an assistant, so I’m really thrilled.

Works so we’ll. My dad is slight guy so hoisting him up isn’t too hard with this thing up around his rear. spares my back.

My wife has osteoporosis and dementia and sometimes trying to get her out of a chair without breaking any bones is scary. The transfer sling works great.

Wish it was padded and longer to reach around a large person. Good design with strong handles, but just a bit more design execution would give it better review. A Bath Towel positioned under or around patient would accomplish same thing.
