This product is made of firm and soft materials, including the velcros, and it should be safe to use. Our senior uncle might benefit from Possey belts that don't tangle because they are simple to apply and will not tangle. The velcros are strong enough for him to remove them on his own. Since getting it, we have only used it a few times due to the need to get permission from him. It was just after receiving the product and trying it that it became evident that a smaller size would have been more comfortable for him.

My job as an Ambassador is to assess clients' current needs and make recommendations. To assist people with wheel chairs in maintaining proper posture, my agency has provided five Posey Torso Supports. It's wonderful having them around. Someone who is the right fit could find it life changing.
I like how it works.
A person can buckle over as the day continues because it is unable to hold their weight. The person is also able to loosen it if they are active and not sitting still all day. For patients with Alzheimer's or dementia, I would not recommend it.
It does not look good (is very ugly), it is difficult to put on and awkward, but it does prevent someone in a wheelchair from falling out of their.
