This is dependent upon the compression levels – Over the Counter (15-20mmHG), Class I (20-30mmHg), Class II (30-40mmHg), and Class III (40-50mmHg). Over the counter or Class I rated medical support stocking can be authorized as Basic Personal Care (PC) under dressing/grooming. A Class II can be authorized as APC (if the participant can remove the item on their own) under aseptic dressing. A Class III (life supporting or life sustaining device or for use which is of substantial importance in preventing impairment of human health, or if the device presents unreasonable risk of illness or injury) cannot be authorized. ACE wraps and compression hose/stockings need to be placed on participant under APC, with the understanding that the participant can remove them on their own accord for emergency needs of swelling, bleeding, pain, or drainage. This can also be done by a family member or friend of the participant in case of an emergency if the family member or friend is with the participant for majority of the time. There should be additional nurse visits scheduled in the first month of any new APC task so the nurse can properly train/guide the APC aide.
