Cushions & Wedges

Cushions and Wedges

Cushions and wedges are available in a range of shapes and sizes for pressure redistribution and the comfortable elevation of limbs and body re-positioning.

Developed from a combination of high density and visco-elastic foams, the specially designed patient aids provide pressure redistribution and support for optimum patient comfort.

All covers are made from a two-way stretch, waterproof and vapour permeable fabric that can be easily wiped clean.  All seams are high frequency welded to prevent the ingress of bacteria and all floor-based products have slip-resistant bases.

Sacral Cushion
