Using A Gait Belt Safely:
Following Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recommendations, caregivers should ensure the belt is snug but not overly tight, allowing two fingers to fit between the belt and the patient. Secure fastening is essential to prevent the patient from undoing the belt during movement. Prior approval from the patient's physician is advisable, especially after recent surgery or for individuals with specific medical conditions. Patients should wear proper clothing and non-slip footwear, and caregivers should be in good physical condition when performing transfers.
