More Details
The Q-Vest by Q'straint has been designed with technical assistance from occupational and physiotherapists, school bus drivers, supervisors, and other experts in special needs transportation. Used in conjunction with the standard occupant restraint (lap-sash seat belt), the Q-Vest provides additional support to a person with a disability who can sit on the regular car seat.
Features of the Q-Vest include:
. 3-point connection with push button release
. Comfortable and fits virtually any contour of a user.
. A groin strap prevents the user from sliding forward under the seat belt.
. Shoulder straps help to keep the vest securely in place and offer additional lateral support.
. The adjustment range of the straps also make it possible to use the Q-Vest in a wheelchair, to provide additional support for the occupant when needed. This ability to use the Q-vest in alternative situations makes it a versatile choice for those clients who typically use a wheeled seating system, but also sit in a vehicle for transport on occasions.
. The Q-Vest is available in 2 sizes, Small (for users 9-27kg) and large (for users over 27kg).
