- Encompass Group, LLC, Albahealth® Introduces Next Generation Patient Safety Footwear Products: FitWear™ and Cozmic Treads™– Standard and Bariatric.

McDonough, GA–(September 2017)–Encompass Group, LLC, Albahealth announces affordable and luxurious, high-risk patient safety footwear products in standard and bariatric sizes: FitWear and Cozmic Treads.

*“FitWear and Cozmic Treads are the next generation in patient safety footwear,”* said Jennifer Woody, Albahealth Senior Manager, Marketing and Products. “Both feature the newest profile in healthcare, and the True-Fit™ heel design–the first in the market to address proper sock positioning during wear by helping to prevent spinning and twisting of the sock while on the foot. The new-age fit and premium slip-resistant tread are the perfect combination for top-of-the-line protection against falls. They are available in sizes from Child/Small Adult to Adult 2XL to ensure proper fit for all members of large patient or resident populations. The yellow color allows for quick identification of high- risk patients and residents.”

*“Our new advaced footwear products aid in falls prevention while improving patient care and*  
*outcomes, and are available on all current GPO contracts, providing the best pricing for members*  
*and improving patient experiences with the True-Fit heel design, which aids in earlier ambulation*  
*and helps increase patient satisfaction through enhanced comfort and fit.”*

FitWear features the True-Fit heel design, a flat knit contoured fit in classic and high-risk styles, and is available in sizes from S-2XL. Cozmic Treads also feature the True-Fit heel design, plus Cozy-Cuff™ stretch welt to offer infinite stretch to accommodate variations in ankle size–available in sizes ranging from S to 3XL, including bariatric.

Patient falls are a serious safety issue, and an effective fall prevention program is a critical component of any patient safety strategy. Industry stakeholders such as National Quality Forum (NQF), Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS), and The Joint Commission have addressed both the need for preventative measures as well as the potential impact to facility reimbursement for poor performance.
