Protection from Falling

 

 Basically, non slip socks are made to give comfort for the elderly and the seniors. Primarily, they help in giving the senior adults to be steadier on their feet, especially on slippery surfaces like hardwood floors or tiles. 

These non slip socks have large, gripping treads at the bottom. This increases the traction more than ordinary regular socks have. These high-quality, slip-resistant socks are available for both men and women. 

Additional qualities 

They are also available in many colors that you can choose from and in standard sizes, extra large sizes, and in XXKL Bariatric sizes. 

The double sided grip socks have prints on both the top and the bottom in cases when the sock turns while on foot. They are all machine washable and dryable. (There are also non-slip shower slippers.) 

Purpose 

Non slip socks are essential in preventing seniors from falling in slippery surfaces. The diabetic socks also have grips on their bottoms, similar to the treads on shoes although they are not stiff. 

These socks are especially good for seniors in hospitals and facilities who are not always monitored. These preventative measures (like the sock’s non-slip quality) can offer peace of mind for the loved ones. 

There are also non-slip versions that are great for people with arthritis, edema, lowered mobility and other disabilities. It is worth mentioning that there is a measure of feeling safe and secure for the seniors in hospitals, especially when they are sick. 

The main point is that it helps reduce the chances of slips and falls. 

Materials 

These socks are made from a cotton blend knit, and are available in 3 different adult sizes that can be stretched to accommodate most feet and ankles. 

Although they are comfortably snug and fitting, they do not restrict circulation. The seamless toe closures add to the additional comfort it gives. This is especially true to those people with swollen feet because of diabetes, edema or some other conditions. 

Other features 

The anti-slip soles of the non-slip socks are made of durable silicone tread, and they are perfect for patients in hospitals, those in post surgery, living in nursing homes, those in retirement homes and home care. 

These non-slip socks benefit the patients as well as the caregivers who are taking care of these senior citizens. 

Silicone treads 

The anti-slip soles are made of a durable silicone tread, hence they’re perfect for sick patients. For some picky seniors, the non-slip socks come in a variety of neutral colors that make them versatile enough to be paired with any color outfit. 

Some manufacturers put in rubbery grips on the soles and applied throughout the entire bottom for maximum fall protection. 

Additional qualities 

They are available in multi-packs of soft polyester chenille and stretchable cotton blend. All are machine washable and withstand many loads of heavy cycles. 

There is also a choice of less seams to avoid any rubbing or pressure points. There are no elastics in the top to ensure comfort.
