A wheelchair pull strap (1) for pulling a wheelchair (2) behind a walking patient (20) in case the patient needs to sit. A first strap (3) and a second strap (4) having proximal ends (6) and distal ends (7) attached to rear corners (9) of a wheelchair seat (10) at the proximal ends. A loop (13) is located on the distal ends of the first strap and the distal end of the second strap. When the wheelchair pull strap is attached to the wheel chair and pulled in a forward direction, it forms a V shape, thereby applying equal force to each side of the wheelchair so the wheelchair follows behind the patient. The loop of the wheelchair pull strap is preferably attached to an arm or hand of a caregiver (22) while assisting the patient to walk.
