Suitable for those who regularly use a recliner or footrest, the design relieves pressure on the sole and heel of the wearer’s foot no matter how they are positioned.
Specially designed to provide the highest levels of comfort and protection while the user is in bed or seated for long periods of time. These open-toed fleece-covered heel protectors are machine washable, adjustable and very comfortable. Featuring an adjustable hook and loop, the strapping ensures the best support for swollen feet of any size.
The 'Safe Management of Healthcare Waste' guidance published by the Department of Health (2006) provides a national colour-coded system for the management and disposal of sharps and other healthcare wastes.
The entire Sharpsguard range comes with colour-coded lids and labels for ease of appropriate segregation and consignment, leading to good waste management and compliance with best practice and the current regulations.
The Sharpsguard Yellow Range are a similar range of containers to Sharpsguard orange, with the added advantage that they can also be used to dispose of sharps contaminated with medicinal products and their residues (EWC 18-01-09), other than cytotoxic and/or cytostatic medicines. This is the ideal container for those customers who are aggregating sharps waste, except cytotoxic and cytostatic, into one container.
