More Details

COVER
. Supplied with breathable waterproof cover. Hook and loop fastener straps enable the cushion to be attached to a chair.

Factors To Consider

All cushions must be monitored to prevent 'bottoming out'. This occurs when the user's weight bears down so hard on the product material that it is flattened and the bony parts are pressed against the surface below the cushion. Where bottoming out occurs even with correct use (eg correct choice and depth of foam, correct inflation level) , a different product may need to be considered.

Ensure that the item is not accidentally placed upside down or back to front

It is advisable that a health professional be consulted when considering a suitable pressure care product.

Foam must be regularly replaced as it losses its spring and becomes hard after long term use
