Support safer patient care with our Fall Prevention Kit, designed to identify at-risk individuals and help reduce inpatient falls visually. Previous trials have shown that the Fall Prevention Kit can minimise the number of falls by up to 50% in an NHS hospital. Sold online in packs of 20 kits, these kits are most suitable for hospitals, clinics, care homes, hospices and nursing homes.

Each kit includes:

1 x Bright yellow fleece blanket (96 × 71 cm)

1 x Pair of XL fall prevention slipper socks (UK size 8–11, latex-free, non-slip sole)

Each item is for single-patient use and should be disposed of after discharge.

Why use this kit?

Clear visual indicator: The bold yellow colour alerts staff to patients at risk of falling.

Improved patient safety: Gripped socks offer grip on smooth floors, while the fleece blanket adds warmth and comfort.

Proven results: An NHS hospital using this kit has seen up to a 50% reduction in falls.

Ideal for patients with dementia, delirium, post-fall recovery, or anyone at risk of wandering or forgetting call bells.

The yellow non-slip socks in the kit are size XL, which is equivalent to UK adult shoe size 8-11. But, if the patient's feet or ankles are swollen, we recommend buying larger fall prevention socks and matching them up with the yellow lap blankets as separate items to create your own kits. Therefore, to create your own kit, view the XL non-slip socks and the yellow fleece lap blankets.

Alternative sock sizes: Small | Medium | Large | Extra Large |  Extra Extra Large | 3XL

NHS customers: You can choose to buy these in Packs of 20 kits or Packs of 100 kits via the NHS Supply Chain. Click this link to view pricing for both options.
