Additional Info

BENEFITS

• Protects skin integrity: Low-shear covers and gel inserts lower the chance of pressure sores, friction burns, and skin breakdown.
• Boosts user comfort and posture: Encourages neutral pelvic tilt and leg abduction, improving overall spinal alignment and comfort during long periods of sitting.
• Ideal for high-risk users: Especially beneficial for elderly individuals, those with limited mobility, or patients undergoing rehabilitation who require reliable positioning and support.

USAGE GUIDELINES

• Proper placement: Place the cushion on the seat with the pommel facing forward so that it rests between the user's thighs for accurate positioning.
• Correct seating posture: Ensure the user's pelvis is aligned over the center of the cushion and not tilted backward, which helps engage the anti-slide feature.
• Cover selection based on use: Use the low-shear fabric version for daily use where breathability is important, or select the vinyl cover for users with incontinence needs.
• Monitor user regularly: Check posture, skin condition, and seat alignment daily to maintain the effectiveness of the cushion’s features.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

• For launderable fabric cover: Remove the cover and machine wash in cold or warm water with mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals. Tumble dry on low or air dry.
• For incontinent-proof vinyl cover: Wipe clean using a damp cloth with warm soapy water or a mild disinfectant. Do not machine wash or expose to high heat.
• Foam and gel insert care: Do not immerse the foam or gel insert in water. Spot clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely before use.
• Inspection routine: Check the cushion regularly for signs of wear, damage, or loss of support. Replace if the pommel loses shape or the foam degrades.
