Softform Pressure Relief Heelpad (Single)
For those who spend long stretches of time lying down, the heels are one of the most vulnerable areas for pressure ulcer development. The Softform Pressure Relief Heelpad (Single) is designed with a pressure-reducing gel heel sac, allowing excellent weight distribution and pressure displacement. Keeping a patient's heel protected and comfortable, the gel sac in this pad is filled with a controlled volume of fluid, ensuring consistently even pressure distribution.
The Softform Heelpad is normally supplied in a fuschia colour as seen in the image above, but is occasionally supplied in blue based on availability of materials.
Designed to Reduce Pressure on the Heels
The Softform Pressure Reducing Heelpad enables vulnerable heels to be immersed into an independent gel sac, providing great pressure reduction and comfort for users. This will significantly reduce the risk of pressure sore development, providing peace of mind for bed-bound users.
How to Enhance Your Heelpad's Performance
This product is best when used in conjunction with the Softform Odstock Wedge. This provides an ideal positioning angle for your leg, further enhancing pressure relief and comfort.
Available in Single and Double
This product sold on the page is the single pad for one heel. To provide pressure relief for both heels, there is also a Double Heelpad available.
Supplied with Three Platilon Covers
Softform Pressure Reducing Heelpads are supplied with three protective platilon covers. Platilon protective covers are disposable, helping to avoid contamination of the heelpad.
