Doty Belt for Fire & EMS Crews
Fire & EMS crews rely on the Doty Belt to increase control, reduce strain, and perform safer lift assists in tight or unpredictable environments.
Crews consistently report fewer back strains, smoother lifts, and improved patient stability during floor-to-stand or bed transfers.
Your product made lifting this [280 lb] patient so effortless, I would recommend this product for any department that has to deal with lift assist calls on a regular basis.

Recommended Doty Belt Options for Fire & EMS Users
Available in Medical and Pro configurations to support fast-turnaround EMS use and durable field operations.
Medical Model
The Doty Belt Medical model is designed for fast return-to service after each use. This model comes with urethane-infused straps that can be quickly cleaned with sterilizing wipes. Additionally, as with the Pro Model, it can be cleaned in a standard washing machine or extractor.
Pro Model
The Pro model has the same build strength and durability as the Medical model. It is offered as a more affordable alternative for organizations that may be budget-constrained, or that have less need for a faster return to service time.
