Care should be taken to protect frail skin by wearing Impactwear® Limb Protectors

 

The skin of older people can become thin and frail with age. It can be easily bruised or torn by minor accidents around the home or while working outdoors. These injuries often take considerable time to heal and require frequent dressing.

Impactwear® Limb Protectors are protective garments for the arms and legs made of a skin tone coloured Lycra fabric with soft flexible padding concealed on the inside for comfort and protection. They are light and comfortable to wear and can be worn uncovered by clothing or under clothing without a bulky appearance. The back seam is reversed stitched so it does not aggravate sensitive skin.

They are easy to pull on and come in sizes to suit both arms and legs.

To determine your correct size measure the circumference of your forearm or calf at the widest part.
