Product Information

If a person cannot easily move without help and stays in bed for long periods of time, positioning cushions, pillows and wedges can be used to provide comfortable position changes. Many positioning and adaptive cushions are designed to hold the body in a particular way to relief and prevent pressure ulcers. However, to effectively prevent pressure ulcers/injuries, persons with no mobility need to have their position changed at least every 4 hours, in addition to using these devices.
