Guardian Helmets

We are the manufacturer of a top rated medical safety helmet which offers protection to those who are prone to falls…epilepsy, autism, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson Syndrome, recent surgery patients, long-term care facilities, etc.

We offer a 100% soft-shell fully vented medical safety helmet that not only is “action sports”​ tested and highly rated by Virginia Tech (rated 4 out of 5 stars), it is also machine washable. Our helmet offers 95% head coverage protection but with its sporty design, we have caregivers tell us their patients will bathe, swim, and sleep in them as they are soft, so they are comfortable and do not have the stigma look/feel of many other helmet designs. The caregivers also tell us that the lack of any hard objects on the helmet such as any plastic or metal, gives them the relief that the helmet cannot be “weaponized” towards them in a seizure.
