The Skil-Care Padded Hand Mitts with Finger Separator, Universal Fit, Pair for Safety are specially designed to provide protective hand control while maintaining comfort and proper finger positioning. In healthcare settings, some residents may tend to grab medical tubing, pull at dressings, or experience hand contractures that require supportive intervention. These padded hand mitts with finger separators help limit tube grabbing, picking, and pulling while promoting healthier hand alignment through individual finger channels. Each mitt is cushioned with thick 3-inch padding to create a soft protective barrier. These protective patient safety mitts can be used on either the left or right hand, simplifying application and inventory management. Adjustable wrist straps with a pre-threaded slider buckle ensure a secure yet comfortable fit. For situations requiring additional movement limitation, separate loop straps are included to help restrict arm motion when clinically appropriate.
