Product advice
Is Hip Protectors right for you?
Hip Protectors are worn like underwear, with soft foam pads positioned over the hip bones to help absorb and spread the force of impact if a fall happens.
They're designed as part of a broader approach to reducing the risk of injury from falls, alongside other measures such as home safety checks, suitable footwear, and any falls prevention advice from a healthcare professional, rather than as a standalone solution.
Soft and washable, they're designed to be comfortable enough for regular, everyday wear, since hip protectors are only able to help if they're actually being worn at the time of a fall.
Buyer questions
Hip Protectors FAQs before you enquire
Clear answers to the questions customers usually ask before booking a free home demo.
