Alba Healthcare

Alba Healthcare supplies the quiet workhorses of orthopedic and fall-prevention care: cotton tubular stockinettes that go beneath casts and orthopedic appliances, and skid-resistant slipper socks that keep patients steady on hospital floors. If you manage a cast room, a rehab unit, or a med-surg floor, this is where two everyday supply needs get met by one dependable brand.

The Albahealth natural cotton tubular stockinettes (81220, 81320, 81420) come in 2-, 3-, and 4-inch widths on 25-yard rolls, off-white, non-sterile, and made for plaster and synthetic casting alike. Which width you reach for depends on the limb: narrower rolls suit wrists and forearms, wider ones handle knees, thighs, and larger casts. The 100% cotton tubular rolls (81620, 81820) serve the same protective role—cushioning skin against chafing under casts, over dressings, or with cervical collars—while letting the area breathe and stay clean. Because they're seamless and stretch to conform, they lie flat against the skin without pressure points, which matters when a cast stays on for weeks.

On the fall-management side, Care-Steps slipper socks address a different but equally common concern. The Single Tread socks (80103) provide skid-resistant grip for ambulating patients, while the yellow medium fall-management socks (80180) double as a visual alert—yellow signals high fall-risk status at a glance across many facility color-coding protocols. Both are knit, reusable, and ankle-high, sized for adults.

Buying for a facility usually means thinking in cases and consistent restocking, so these Alba items pair naturally with your broader casting, wound-dressing, and patient-safety inventory.
