Description
This gentle silicone tape holds dressings and medical devices in place on fragile skin that tears or bruises easily.
Older adults and others with delicate skin often need tape that can come off or be repositioned without pulling. The silicone adhesive is made to reduce trauma during removal, and the tape tears to size by hand. It may also be used to cover scars to help reduce their appearance.
Why caregivers like it
- It can be lifted and repositioned with less skin trauma.
- Tearing by hand means no scissors are needed.
- It can stay in place for up to a 7-day change schedule.
- It is latex-free.
