Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Plaspro Slipper Pan and the Super Slipper Pan?

The standard Plaspro Slipper Pan (Code 206) is the original improved-design compact model. The Super Slipper Pan is a larger-capacity version with dimensions W 310mm × L 450mm × H 100mm, providing more volume for high-capacity needs or larger patients. Both are autoclavable to 135°C with built-in rear handles. For most home care situations, the standard model is sufficient; for clinical or high-volume use, the Super is preferable.

Who needs a slipper pan?

Slipper pans are used by patients who are confined to bed and cannot use a standard toilet or conventional bedpan due to limited hip mobility — including people recovering from hip fractures, hip or spinal surgery, those in traction, stroke patients with limited movement, and highly dependent aged care residents. The low wedge design requires only minimal hip lifting for placement.

How do I clean the Plaspro Slipper Pan at home?

Empty and rinse immediately after use. Wash with warm soapy water and a long-handled brush. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely. For disinfection, use a hospital-grade disinfectant solution appropriate for plastics, or if an autoclave is available, sterilise at 135°C. Do not use abrasive cleaners that may scratch the surface.

Is the Plaspro Slipper Pan suitable for residential aged care?

Yes. The autoclavable plastic construction, built-in handle, and compact improved design make it well-suited for residential aged care facilities requiring reusable, sterilisable patient bedpans. The rear handle design supports safe handling for caregivers and reduces manual handling injury risk compared to lifting without a handle.

Can the Plaspro Slipper Pan be used for bowel care?

Yes. Like all bedpans, the Plaspro Slipper Pan is designed for both urinary and bowel use by bed-bound patients. The large opening accommodates comfortable positioning for bowel care. Ensure adequate patient positioning support and privacy for dignified care during use.
