WORK BELTS BEING USED

Here is one of the house mother's with one of the work belts I brought over with me.  Money was donated by friends of mine, so I could purchase several of these belts.  House mother's use them when they have to lift some of the residents.  Throughout the day, a house mother may lift a resident several times into a wheelchair, out of a wheelchair, into/out of a bed, into a chair...house mother's are very camera shy, but I managed to click this picture quickly before she could really refuse.

The work belts that are made here in Korea, are really poorly made and give no support.  Ilsan loves to receive the ones that come from the U.S., because they are much sturdier and last longer.
