The 48 inch belt adjusts down to 24 inches and is suitable for most average adult waist sizes. The 60 inch belt adjusts down to 30 inches and provides more length for larger patients or for caregivers who prefer extra belt length for a more secure grip. As a general guide, measure the patient's waist and add 20 to 24 inches to ensure enough length to buckle, adjust, and still have belt remaining for the caregiver to hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the hand grips and how do they help?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe hand grips are reinforced loops built into the belt that give the caregiver a firm, ergonomic place to hold during transfers and ambulation assistance. The hand grips distribute the pulling force more evenly across the caregiver's hand, reducing fatigue and improving control during the transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I fit the gait belt on a patient?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlace the belt around the patient's waist over their clothing — never directly on bare skin. Thread the belt through the buckle and adjust to a snug fit: you should be able to slide two fingers under the belt, but it should not be loose enough to slide up over the hips. Position the buckle to the side or front, not directly over the spine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean the gait belt?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMachine wash in warm water with mild detergent and tumble dry on low, or air dry. Inspect the belt before each use for signs of fraying, weakened webbing, or buckle damage and replace immediately if any wear is detected.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Complete Medical","offers":[{"title":"48 inch","offer_id":52966535102773,"sku":"11616C","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"60 inch","offer_id":52966535135541,"sku":"11616D","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1443\/4772\/products\/complete-medical-gait-belts-48-inch-blue-jay-gait-belt-with-hand-grips-2-inch-cotton-webbing-plastic-buckle-48-or-60-inch-23631812493366.jpg?v=1788637805","url":"https:\/\/www.precisionlabworks.com\/en-ca\/products\/blue-jay-gait-belt-with-hand-grips-2-inch-cotton-webbing-plastic-buckle-48-or-60-inch","provider":"Precision Lab Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
