Update - New stoma care products and services
We recognise the benefits of supplying up to date information, and will strive to provide ostomates with the latest news on new products and services. We welcome feedback about stoma care products and services especially those that have helped resolve a stoma related problem - please get in touch with us via contact us.
Two companies contacted us with details of stoma care appliances and services that have been introduced within the last few months:
Salts Healthcare has launched a new and improved range of stoma support wear. Called Simplicity, the unisex boxers and ladies briefs are not only made from a lightweight and breathable fabric that keeps the body dry at all times, they also benefit from antibacterial properties.
Simplicity Stoma Support Wear is made in two-way stretch fabric, which moves with the body and features ribbing on the front that gives secure pouch support as well as a flush finish that is virtually invisible under most clothing. The support wear also has a deep and high waistband which offers extra comfort and covers the pouch without preventing the stoma from working. What’s more, Simplicity briefs have no labels to irritate you when you move and after washing they can be quickly dried in around thirty minutes.
The Simplicity boxers and briefs are available on prescription in the UK in black or white in S/M, M/L and L/XL sizes and form part of Salts’ comprehensive range of accessories.
If you would like further information on our new range, need guidance on sizing or would like to place an order, please call Salts Freephone number 0800 626388 or visit www.salts.co.uk.
Pelican Healthcare is pleased to announce the launch of a new range of 2-Piece appliances which are available on prescription now*.
The Pelican Select 2-Piece range of products has been specifically designed to enhance comfort, whilst ensuring maximum security coupled with ease of connection.
Select 2-Piece is available in three pouch sizes of Mini, Standard and Maxi to suit your requirements with a silky soft fabric for comfort and discretion. The controlled flow filter is effective at reducing the risks of pouch pancaking and ballooning.
Seclect 2-Piece base plates are available in two sizes: 50mm and 70mm dependent on your stoma size. The Select base plate is unique and extremely flexible offering you maximum comfort.
