This resource is a little different to the usual guideline or website that is commonly discussed in this newsletter.

This is a product that was recommended by a number of patients and has the potential to really improve the quality of someone’s life.

Quite simply it’s a waterproof protector that goes over a patient’s plaster or dressing.

Called Blocc’s protectors, these covers are made of a type of rubber that stretches over the cast or dressing to make a waterproof seal. And apparently they are excellent at keeping the dressing or plaster dry.
