A client who slides forward in the seat or lists to one side is at risk during a shower, and it also makes the carer’s job slower and more awkward. This upholstered two-part belt can be run as a hip belt or as a chest belt, depending on where the client needs the support.
It adjusts on three buckles across a wide length range, so it will fit a small frame and a large one, and it can be reset as a client’s size changes. The material is padded and quick drying, which keeps it comfortable against the body and practical in a wet room.
It is a positioning belt, not a restraint, and should be set up as part of a wider postural plan.
