Are the Slipper Socks Comfortable?
Hospital socks can often be baggy and uncomfortable. The Medline Single-Tread Socks are the opposite, utilising a knitted cuff to perfectly fit your foot and provide excellent support. It's also made from a highly comfortable material, ensuring your feet won't itch or become irritable.
If your feet are prone to sweating, you'll also benefit from their perspiration-absorbing properties. These ensure your feet will stay comfortable and dry throughout your day.
How Do the Socks Stop Slips?
The Medline Traction Socks utilise gripper treads to keep you steady indoors. This makes them ideal for elderly and low-mobility users who might usually rely on a walking aid to support themselves.
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 any fall-prevention program. They make it easy to identify patients, with them 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 the socks become damaged.
