Features
- Skil-Care Heel-Float Air Boot includes a high-rise pod that allows the caregiver to raise or lower the heel based on the individuals needs

More Information
- Application:
– This universally sized air boot fits most residents. It has two straps that allow for easy adjustment. The straps should be closed tight enough not to allow for excessive movement and not too tight to interfere with residents comfort. This boot has two air valves and both valves should be inflated so that the boot feels soft. Note, that in most circumstances, this boot comes pre-inflated. Place the residents foot in the boot and make sure that there is space between the bed and heel. If the heel is resting on the bed then slightly increase the heel-pad inflation with the optional or equal air pump. - Notice:
– Remove the boot every 8 to 12 hours to check for skin irritation, ischemia or discoloration. Assure that the heel is placed towards the back and is placed the opening. - Easy Care
– The air boot can be wiped clean with soap and water or a disinfectant. Do Not Launder
