Soft Transfer Belt

These transfer belts are sometimes referred to as Pelican Belts, Johnny Belts or simply Transfer Belts.

This popular belt is used for transferring patients. The belts have four large padded vertical handles. The belts are normally used with two Carers working together, but if necessary, one Carer can work alone, depending on the patient.

The Soft Transfer Belt is similar to the Pelican Handi-Lift/Walk Belt and is used in the same manner. Instead of a Velcro fastening, the Soft Transfer Belt has a buckle and is suitable when the patient has a ‘pendulous’ bust or if their body shape requires a narrower belt fastening. This is easily adjusted for size to suit a variety of patients. The soft padded Belt is slip resistant.
