Several professionals working with individuals displaying learning disabilities, challenging behaviour or autism spectrum disorder, as well as special needs parents have been cut, scratched or bitten in the past. But did you know that human bite injuries can become infected? Did you know there is the risk that an injured person could be infected? Yes, even transmissions of viruses, such as Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C or HIV are also a realistic risk.
Makeshift bite resistant clothing and arm guards
The time for makeshift bite resistant clothing and arm guards is over. Too many professionals have historically used improvised protection that we deem inadequate, they are offering inferior protection, they are uncomfortable and not fit for the job.
Our protective garments have proven over and over again to effectively assist in protecting against these risks and thus the potential and realistic consequences of a bite from a human.
All products have been designed to be put on quickly when a situation requires you to seek additional protection, usually before you engage with a patient, pupil or service user. They can then be kept in a desk draw, hang up on the wall, or be individually issued to all staff. They can be taken off within seconds when they are no longer required.

I personally believe that anyone working in any of the above highlighted environments have a moral right to do their job as safely as possible and hence be equipped appropriately.
No one should go to work and simply ‘accept’ that a preventable injury might occur, or the risk is deemed ‘realistic’. Yes, some of us (e.g. law enforcement, military, security etc.) have to accept that the job comes with a certain risk, but we equally have a moral right to expect from our employer that this realistic and identified risk is being mitigated.
