High temperature washable Medical sheepskin

Description

Texel medical sheepskin washable

The Texel medical sheepskin is suitable for people who need decubitus prevention or want more comfort in their bed or (wheel)chair.

Bedsores (decubitus) are common in nursing homes. When patients are bedridden, wounds can occur in the areas of high pressure. Bedsores are very painful and in most cases preventable. The sheepskin has an insulating effect which keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer.

In Australia, medical coats have been used in hospitals since 1998.
Recent research in Australia has shown that, the patients who lay on an Australian Medical Sheepskin, 9% developed pressure ulcers. In the control group who received usual care, it was 15%. The bedsores were thus reduced by 40%!


High temperature washable through special tanning process

This medicinal sheepskin is unique in its kind and washable up to 60 °C.
Therefore it meets the requirements of the health authorities for disinfection.
This washable sheepskin is specially designed for repeated use in hospitals or nursing facilities.

For the medical sheepskins we use the fleece of the Texel sheep.
Due to the wind and salty sea air on the island, the Texel has a firm frizzy wool with a high content of lanolin.
Lanolin is a wool grease that has a nurturing effect on the skin.
The medicinal sheepskin is shorn short and offers a pleasant firmness when used to distribute the pressure of the body.


The advantages of a washable medicinal sheepskin in a row:

  • Washable to 60 degrees for extra hygiene
  • Relieves pressure and reduces pain
  • 100% real Texel lambskin
  • Shaved short for extra comfort

A genuine Texelaar product

We source our sheepskins from Skéépe, the only supplier of genuine Texel furs, which guarantees that you are buying the fleece from a sheep that has actually lived on the island.

    Alle medicinale schapenvachten zijn met mate wasbaar. Ze kunnen dus gewassen worden maar als het nog niet echt nodig is, stel het dan liever even uit. Gebruik dan bijvoorbeeld onze wolkam om het vuil er uit te borstelen of laat je schapenvacht even buiten luchten.

    Wil je echt graag wassen? Doe dat dan op de volgende manier:

    • Was op een speciaal wolwasprogramma met een wolwasmiddel.
    • Was nooit hoger dan 30 graden.
    • Laat de vacht na het wassen, zo langzaam mogeijk drogen (nooit in de droger of bij de verwarming!). Laat de vacht liefst plat drogen en bijvoorbeeld in de badkamer. Als de vacht te snel opdroogt, wordt hij stug.
    • Rek tijden het drogen het leer af en toe voorzicht op. Zo zorg je dat je vachtje soepel blijft.

    FAQs

    What is a medicinal sheepskin and what is it used for?

    A medicinal sheepskin is short-shorn, washable and specially tanned. This tanning process often gives it a slightly yellower colour than a regular sheepskin. Medicinal sheepskins are used in healthcare or at home for extra comfort when sitting or lying down for long periods of time. They are ideal for use in bed, on a chair or in a wheelchair. The skin ensures good pressure distribution, helps prevent bedsores and can provide relief for joint problems.

    Can I wash a medicinal sheepskin?
    es, a medicinal sheepskin is washable (in moderation). Do not wash it too often, as this will preserve the lanolin.
    Wash a medicinal sheepskin on a special wool wash programme with a wool detergent. Do this at a maximum temperature of 30 degrees. Then allow the sheepskin to dry slowly (e.g. in the bathroom) and gently stretch the skin while drying. This will make it supple again.
    Is my medicinal sheepskin covered by my health insurance?
    All our medicinal skins have an AGB code with which you can request a claim. It is best to check with your health insurance provider whether the skin will be reimbursed. The reimbursement depends on your insurance and the nature of the complaints.

    ✓ AGB claim code: 76091238
    ✓ Qualification code: 7600
    ✓ G-Standard / Z-index code: 17102847
