Alerta Soft Heel Protectors

Alerta Heel Protector: Soft, Breathable Pressure Relief

The Alerta Heel Protector is a proactive and comfortable solution designed to significantly reduce the risk of heel pressure ulcers. By combining soft, breathable materials with a strategic design, this device works to both eliminate friction and reduce pressure on one of the body's most vulnerable areas. It provides a simple yet effective method of care in hospital, nursing, and home care environments, helping to maintain skin integrity and promote user comfort.

Advanced Design for Heel Pressure Relief

The Alerta Heel Protector is engineered to address the two primary causes of pressure ulcers: friction and sustained pressure. The clever padding and design slightly raise the foot to effectively offload the heel, reducing direct contact with the bed or chair surface. This offloading mechanism, combined with a smooth, low-friction interior, helps to prevent skin shearing and breakdown. The padded surface also provides a comfortable and supportive environment for the foot.

Comfortable & Hygienic Materials

The protector is crafted from high-quality materials for optimal patient care. The surface is made from a cool, natural cotton that helps to limit perspiration and manage skin microclimate. The inner fill is made of siliconized polyester hollow fibre, providing soft, cushioned support. The entire protector is both breathable and antibacterial, which is crucial for hygiene and preventing infection. It is also phthalate-free, ensuring it is safe for all users.

Versatile & Easy to Maintain

Designed to be practical for everyday use, the Alerta Heel Protector fits most sizes and can be easily secured with adjustable straps for a comfortable and secure fit. For long-term use and superior hygiene, the protector is fully washable. The technical specifications provide clear instructions on how to care for the product, including a maximum washing temperature of 40°C and guidelines for tumble drying, ironing, and dry cleaning.
