User questions & answers

Question:	Does this belt have a loop in the back to grab onto when mounted in place
Answer:	The loop you see is the only one. When the belt is on I grabbed the belt itself. Adjust belt to tightness that works best for both of you. I liked this belt.
Question:	Can this belt be cut because its too long
Answer:	The belt is adjustable for different body sizes
Question:	Two of the reviews says its made of plastic buckles while you advertised it as metal buckles
Answer:	The SGBM-60S that you are referring to features a metal buckle. There are also reviews for our other models shown on the product detail page, one of which features a quick release plastic buckle. Thank you.
Question:	is this belt adjustable to a waist line of 27 inch or 34 inch? I need it to be semi-tight, not falling down the hip of the patient
Answer:	Yes, there is a buckle with teeth that grabs into it. This is adjustable to the smallest to largest size waist(my husband is 48-50 and there is still room to spare). My husband weighs 210 and I have lifted him.

Answer:	This is a standard gait belt that is made of premium quality materials. It can assist in lifting someone who has fallen, but it depends on the condition of the individual.

Answer:	It does not have plastic stays..but its confortable its does not slide or bunch like you asked

Answer:	When laid flat, it's 43" at the longest point. 9" high. You'd have to really stretch it to make it fit anything bigger than 43". It's cut on an angle on the ends, so the 43" is the longest measurement I could get you.
Question:	The 9" is too high. I'm 5 ft and the top and bottom cut into me when I bend or sit. Can this binder be cut down
Answer:	I cut the binder down Cut about 2-3 inches from top Also cut the Velcro in a V on edge as it tends to be longer than where you attach it The binder will fray a bit but not too badly

User questions & answers

Question:	Will the pressure cuff fit in this
Answer:	No, a blood pressure cuff will not fit in this belt.
Question:	I am starting a waitressing job and i need a little pouch or bag to put tips. Do you believe this would serve that purpose well
Answer:	As a user of this bag I don't think it will serve it's purpose for what you need it. This is simply because of the dimesions of the bag. As you can see in the picture it's not that big it's utilized to store simply materials such as shears, tape, iv saline, and Kelly clamps some pens and some paper. I believe what you need is something longer to store your waitress note pad. Hope this helps.
Question:	Can I put a stetoscope in it
Answer:	No it's not big enough for that. However, you could hang it over the straps so it would dangle while you walk.
Question:	Does the belt extend to fit a typical XL size for women
Answer:	The description says it has a 50 inch belt. Measure your waist.

Sammons Preston Gait Belts

This simple gait belt is ideal for transferring patients in between wheelchairs and other seats. It can also be used to provide greater balance and stability for people who struggle to walk independently, such as those recovering from surgery or injury and the elderly. This gait belt is the perfect solution to provide extra support and security while assisting in getting them up out of bed, out of the car, or of a wheelchair, or simply guiding them as they walk.

Sturdy Patient Transfer Belt

These 2" wide straps are thick and resilient to pressure and pulling, while the metal buckle locks the belt in place and prevent slipping. Transferring a loved one by grabbing their arm to pull them up is painful and can cause bruising. Even pulling someone up by the back of their pants is uncomfortable and can be humiliating. This practice puts both the patient and caregiver a risk for injury.

User questions & answers

Question:	If i'm falling right at 38" should i opt for the medium or the large? i'm having a hard time deciding which one will fit better. thanks
Answer:	Hi there, this brace fits pretty snug, so I would recommend going up to the Large.
Question:	how tall is the belt
Answer:	Hi there. The belt is 6 inches in the front and 9 in the back.
Question:	My husband measures 40 inches. Would a large really be the correct size
Answer:	If you measured your husband's body circumference around his belly button, and his measurement was 40 inches, then the large is to fit 38-46" at that measurement. Mediums are to go 30-38" and the XL is 46-54" at that measurement of circumference at the belly button.

Answer:	Yes. I bought it for my father and he wears it around the house. It has enough flex in it to let you walk around and move from sitted to mobile.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the actual length of the 45" - 60" binder if you layed it out and measured it end to end? Thanks
Answer:	Hey - thanks for your inquiry. Due to covid things have been a bit delayed lately so we do apologise, but our XL & 2XL sizes are on their way and should be ready for sale in about 2-3 weeks (end of May) depending on how fast Amazon can process them. Sorry again for the inconvenience!
Question:	I am having a csection and am confused by this sizing. Before pregnancy I was about 145 pounds, 5’7” tall, 28” waist 38” hips. Which size and height
Answer:	We have a new black range of the product that will hopefully be in stock and available mid February 😊
Question:	Can you put it on by yourself I live alone
Answer:	You have 2 options to put the binder on yourself! The first is written in instruction 2 on the last image of the listing. Holding the binder in one hand against your stomach, with the other hand stretch and wrap the binder around your stomach, and fix the velcro to the binder itself at your desired compression. The other option is to lay your binder out on the floor, then position yourself lying on top of it where you want the binder to sit. Your weight will help keep the binder in position while with one hand you pull one side of the binder up and around your stomach, and with the other hand you can pull the velcro side up and over your stomach at the desired compression, the stick it to the binder itself. I hope this helps! Please not - we do recommend getting some assistance if possible to get as much compression as you like.
Question:	Covered by insurance
Answer:	Hello, thanks for your query! I think these customers haven’t referred to any of the instructions/information given for the product or watched the video provided. The binder comes with a backing piece of velcro for protection reasons during shipping etc, you simply peel this off then wrap the binder around you and stick the velcro to any part of the ‘binder material itself’ at your desired compression! These customers have mistakenly thought they had to sew that backing piece onto the binder for the velcro to stick - but I want to make it very clear that is not the case and you can 100% use the binder ‘as is’!! I hope this helps to clear up any confusion, if you have any other questions please feel free to ask!
