The Velour Mitts – Lined help prevent people from hurting themselves and carers.
About the Velour Mitts – Lined
We use two materials quilted together to make this product.
The outer Velour material is soft so if the Patient rubs themselves, it should not harm the skin. The special breathable cotton inner lining prevents sweating.
A Hook & Loop Tape fastening secures the Mitt around the wrist.
