Are the Slipper Socks Comfortable?
The Medline Single-Tread Socks offer more than the average hospital sock. Featuring a knitted cuff, they fit snugly against your ankles to provide excellent support and a custom feel. Their comfortable material only adds to this, ensuring your feet won't itch or become irritable at any point.
If your feet are prone to sweating, you'll also benefit from their perspiration-absorbing properties. These ensure your feet will stay nice and dry for lasting comfort.
How Do the Socks Stop Slips?
The Medline Traction Socks have been specifically designed to prevent trips and falls indoors. Featuring gripper treads on the top and bottom, they're ideal for elderly and low-mobility users who might need extra support when they don't have access to their walking aid.
Certified for use in hospitals and care homes, the Medline Socks adhere to EU PPE Regulation 2016/425. This means you can trust them to keep you stable and protected in any indoor environment.
Ideal for Patient Identification
The Medline Sock's yellow colour denotes 'at risk' patients, making them ideal for your fall-prevention program. They make it easy to identify patients discreetly, alerting staff or carers to patients who may need added support or care.
Can You Wash the Traction Socks?
The Medline Single Tread Slipper Socks are designed primarily as a single-use item. This is mainly advised for hospitals and care homes, where there is a risk of patients' socks becoming mixed up. However, if you are using the socks yourself or for a single user, they should last for at least a few washes before becoming damaged.
