Hip fractures in the elderly are a serious risk that usually requires surgery. Prevention is infinitely preferable to treatment.

 

What is the Hip Shield Hip Protector Belt by Safehip?

The Hip Shield Hip Protector Belt by Safehip has been specifically developed for hips protection to reduce the risk of hip fractures in seniors. This hip protector is very suitable for post-surgery hip care. The hip protector is a belt with a hook & loop fastener and sewn-in hip protector pads made out of soft PE foam. The hip belt is designed to absorb and deflect impact away from the hipbone and prevent hip injury. It is designed for active seniors who are at risk of falling.

It offers the same protective benefit as the Hip Pad Hip protector - open or the Hip Pad Hip protector - closed but with the added convenience of easy removal and without the restriction of movement.

 

How Does the Hip Shield Hip Protector Belt Work?

Positioned in critical areas around the hips, the sewn-in foam hip pad can effectively prevent hip fractures. In the event of a fall, the unique Hip Shield Hip Protector absorbs and dissipates the impact, reducing the risk of hip fracture, trauma and bruising to the vulnerable hip area.

The Hip Shield itself is discreet and comfortable to wear, and is unobtrusive beneath a skirt or trousers. It can also be worn over clothes.
