Hip savers and soft hip protectors are designed to help reduce the risk of serious hip injury if a fall happens. They are commonly used by people who are unsteady on their feet, have osteoporosis or fragile bones, live with dementia or confusion, or have a history of falls.
At Statewide Home Health Care, our hip saver range includes a variety of styles and sizes that may be worn under everyday clothing in homes, residential aged care, hospitals and supported accommodation. These products are usually selected as part of a wider falls prevention and fracture prevention plan led by an allied health professional.

Always consult your occupational therapist or other allied health professional for personalised advice before purchasing falls prevention, hip protection or mobility equipment.
