- PPI-RAP® pads will last a lifetime
The Difference Maker
PPI-RAP® works in a unique way. This foam has the ability to “solidify” at the moment of impact, wherever the impact occurs. Then, the foam immediately returns to its original soft, flexible state. The foam’s ability to solidify gives it superior protection while offering maximum comfort.
How does Microban® Protection Work?
Microban® antimicrobial technologies are infused into PPI-RAP® during the manufacturing process and becomes a permanent part of the molecular structure. When microbes come in contact with the product surface, Microban® protection penetrates the cell wall of the microbe and disrupts key cell functions so that the microbe cannot function, grow or reproduce. Microban® technology protects PPI-RAP® materials from the growth of bacteria.

Just ordered 2 pair of Gerihip shorts. Got them really fast and my mother in law says they are comfortable and easy for her to slip on and off. We joke saying she now has her own pair of “spanks” that hold her in, give her a “booty” as well as give her the added confidence and protection she may need in case of a fall. We also love the fact that the inserts can be removed for washing and for placement in just the right spot. Thank you.

I heard about hip protectors from my sister in law who bought them for her mother after attending The Falls Clinic. I?m surprised more people haven?t heard of them (neither physios nor people who work in elder care). I bought this for my mother not knowing if she would be willing to use it. My mother has found them to be comfortable and not too bulky.
I found the customer service staff very helpful. I was unsure what size to order. They suggested medium and offered to change it if it was incorrect , but the chose correctly the first time.
I hope my mother doesn?t fall, but the GeriHip is like an insurance policy
