Padded Heel/Elbow Protectors

The Elbow and Heel Protector from North Coast offers a protective device for individuals who need extra support treating or preventing pressure-related injuries. These are developed to increase mobility and sustainability for bedridden individuals or people who cannot move without help.

The protector supports and protects the heels and elbows from pressure sores, skin abrasions, nerve irritations, and other related injuries. These are designed with two different models with dense padding that offers great skin aeration and make them ideal for periodic use. The foam model has a 6-inch diameter pad, while the gel model offers a removable shock-absorbing 3.5-inch by 6.25-inch gel pad. These can accommodate a wide range of users.

The sleeves for these protectors make the entire device comfortable and reliable. Because the protectors use polymer and spandex as construction materials, the sock-like appearance allows consumers to slide their arms and feet without any issue. Likewise, the materials make it breathable and weightless without restricting mobility. These are often sold in pairs to accommodate for both arms and legs simultaneously as needed.

Because both protector styles are latex-free and are developed to have a more cloth-like appearance, these are easy to maintain. Simply machine wash and air dry them, but remove the gel pad from the gel model before washing.

To seize, measure the circumference at the elbow crease or heel. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size option. Sizes are color-coded for easy identification; yellow is small, blue is medium, green is large, and red is x-large.
