Socks or bare feet what is better

Posted January 29, 2021

 


I work in a rehab hospital.  My question is about foot ware- Should a patient or resident be put into bed with no socks on if they are an idependent ambulator but forget to put shoes on and a Fall risk? Socks are slippery on the hospital floor, for those who forget to put shoes on is it better to have no socks on?
