Purpose and Benefits This Pelican Leg Lifter webbing strap with stiffened stem enables the user to move a stiff or immobile leg when using the bed, wheelchair, footstool etc. The upper loop fits around the hand and wrist, and the lower stiffened loop slides over the foot to give control in lifting the leg. Length 864mm (34). Weight 78g. Features For one foot at a time Made from strong webbing with plastic inside to keep it straight, so the open loop can easily be placed over the foot Various hand loop options, so you can use you body weight to help lift Available in a webbing material or wipeable vinyl material to help fight cross-infection To Use When sitting on the side of the bed, place the open foot loop over the foot. Lean forward and hold the lowest webbing loop possible to make a comfortable lift. Holding your arm straight, lean back, so your body weight will lift the foot off the floor. Some people may use their wrist or forearm if they have difficulty holding the webbing with their fingers. These instructions may vary to suit the individual capabilities of the person. By crossing one foot over the other, the Pelican Leg Lifter can be placed on the lower foot. This way both feet are lifted at the same time.
