Questionn about pedals for recumbent

I'm asking this for Hubby who lets me do the internet research.

He bought a recumbent this year following his 2nd total shoulder replacement surgery. He still rides his road bike and hybrid, but long rides on those bikes hurt his shoulders. He is not planning to go clipless because he believes there is a greater risk of injuring his shoulder if he falls while trying (or failing) to unclip.

Is there a clip or strap that will keep his feet on the pedal and won't let them slip downward while his feet are toe-up, but allow for easy release? He complains about his feet coming off while pedaling at higher speeds. (He's still getting used to this bike.)
