SallyStrap® Instructions
1. If patient is sitting, lean patient forward in chair to enable strap to pass behind and be brought around waist like a normal belt
2. Secure as tightly as possible without being uncomfortable ensuring the belt cannot slide up or down the patient. Ensuring at least 2 Velcro sections are overlapped. If using the small belt, switch to the large if two Velcro sections cannot be overlapped.
