    Understanding the Importance of Gait Belts & Mobility Belts

    Safe patient handling is a critical part of caregiving, and gait belts are among the simplest yet most effective tools. These belts wrap around a patient’s waist and give caregivers a secure grip, allowing them to assist with standing, sitting, walking, or repositioning without placing undue strain on themselves or the patient.

    Pelican’s range of mobility belts includes multiple variations to suit different care scenarios, including options with various vertical and horizontal handles for extra control. Our gait belt transfer solutions are made with strong, comfortable materials that are easy to disinfect and reuse.

    Used correctly, gait belts help reduce the risk of falls and improve mobility training outcomes for elderly individuals, post-operative patients, and those recovering from injury or illness. We also offer stand-up helper tools for those who require extra support transitioning from seated to standing positions.

    From hospitals to home care, Pelican’s gait and mobility belts are built to make daily caregiving tasks safer and easier.

    FAQs

    What is a gait belt used for?

    A gait belt helps caregivers safely transfer or support patients while standing or walking. It offers a firm grip and better control during mobility tasks.

    Are mobility belts and gait belts the same?

    While the terms are often used interchangeably, mobility belts may include additional features like multiple grip handles or padding for extra comfort during longer use.

    When should a gait belt be used?

    Gait belts are ideal during transfers between a bed, chair, or toilet and assisted walking. They help minimise fall risk and reduce strain on caregivers.

    What is a stand-up helper?

    A stand-up helper is a device or tool used to assist patients in rising from seated to standing. It offers additional support alongside a gait or mobility belt.

    Can one caregiver use a gait belt alone?

    Yes, gait belts are designed for use by individual caregivers, though complex transfers or heavier patients may require assistance from a second person.

    Are your gait belts washable?

    Absolutely. Pelican’s mobility belts are made from durable, easy-clean materials, and depending on the model, they can be wiped down or machine-washed.
