GENERAL USE:
The Ferno Walk Belt has been purpose designed for paramedics and emergency healthcare professionals
to assist patients while walking.
The Ferno Walk Belt secures around a patient's waist and is fitted with eight handles − four horizontal and four vertical handles − as well as
two leg straps that are designed to strengthen the Walk Belt when used to stabilise unsteady patients. The Walk Belt substantially reduces
the effort required by the operator to assist a patient whilst walking. The Ferno Walk Belt can be machine washed and reused repeatedly.

Fitting and Using the Walk Belt

1. Release the waist belt buckle and wrap the Walk Belt around the
patient's waist. Clip the buckle together, and further adjust the
belt strap so the Walk Belt fits closely against the patient's body.
Pre-Adjust the Walk Belt
To save time and reduce inconvenience to
the patient, gauge the patient's waist size
and pre-adjust the Walk Belt before
placing the belt on to the patient.
Stability Aid. Not for fall arrest from height.
