What GripSox® can do for patients & staff.

The key feature of GripSox® is a “non-slip” rubberised sole to help with the gripping of variable floor surfaces, equipment and mats. Other benefits of GripSox® include:

Designed and TRIALED

GripSox® are designed in Melbourne and clinically trialed in Australia & NZ to meet mandatory National Safety & Quality Health Service Standards relating to falls prevention.

Extra Grip

Our GripSox® have thick density grip dots for enhanced grip effect and grip dots will withstand high temperature laundering.

made from

Our GripSox® are 95% cotton to allow breathability (essential for exercise), 5% elastane for extra stretch over swollen feet and are latex free.

Comfort

Added pure comfort with a seamless toe, fitted heel to prevent the socks from rotating around the foot and a non-cushioned sole for extra grip and foot sensation.

Improving your life

Improve performance, increase safety, improve hygiene and provide warmth with our non-slip grip socks. Ideal for the elderly and those with disability.

BENEFITTING Healthcare Staff

It is not only patients who can benefit from the use of GripSox®. All health staff, and in particular nurses and carers, can benefit from the knowledge that a patient to whom they are about to attend, is visibly identifiable as a high falls risk by the wearing of GripSox® non-slip grip socks.

This means staff can be better prepared in advance when assisting with patient transfers, thus resulting in fewer staff manual handling injuries from unexpected patient slips and falls.

Not only does this reduce work days lost through staff injuries, but financially speaking, a reduction in the incidence of patient falls and staff injuries can also significantly reduce an Organisation’s insurance and WorkCover premiums.
