Professional Hip Safety—NOW HipSaver® Interim

  • New admissions — have HipSaver® Interim on hand to provide immediate protection for newly admitted residents.
  • Use HipSaver® Interim as a “stop gap” component of your Fall Safety Programme, while you order regular HipSaver® for ongoing protection.

The proven all-soft hip protector

HipSaver® hip protectors are all-soft, one piece briefs worn as underwear. Thin, tapered visco-elastic foam pads are located to cover each trochanter (hip bone).  Each pad is heat sealed into a high temperature tolerant and waterproof pouch so that the entire garment can be washed and dried — even in industrial laundries.

Clinical trials prove that HipSaver® wearers consistently report high rates of compliance, due to the comfortable all-soft construction, and consistent reductions in fracture rates when HipSaver® is used as a key component of Fall Safety Programmes.
