The Mitts – Velour are quick and easy to put on a Patient.
The Mitt allows the Patient to open and close their fingers. Due to the foam padding, it is difficult to scratch or pick up objects.
You can cut or mechanically punch ventilation holes into the material for better air circulation. Place the holes on the back of the hand near the wrist. This is so that the Patient’s fingers do not reach near the holes.
