Effective Medium Risk Pressure Relief
A modular cut foam construction enables the Carefree Overlay Mattress to provide effective pressure relief to users. The castellated foam design reduces the pressure on patients by redistributing their body weight, making the overlay fantastic for those at medium risk of pressure ulcer development. The castellations also allow more airflow beneath the patient, and can adjust to movement to reduce shear forces.
Comfortable, Protective Cover
To help ensure comfort is maintained and the overlay is protected, a stitched two-way stretch cover is included. Waterproof and vapour-permeable, it's comfortable and helps with infection control while also protecting the overlay from moisture and damage. The cover's two-way stretch design helps to reduce shear and friction, further decreasing the risk of bedsore development.
Does the Carefree Modular Overlay Mattress Have a Cover?
Absolutely - each and every Carefree Mattress comes with a removeable, washable sanitation cover. To wash yours, simply machine wash at a temperature not exceeding 40°C.
Two Sizes and Depths Available
Helping you get the right overlay for your bed and care environment, the Carefree Pressure Relief Overlay is available in sizes for single and double beds. Additionally, two depth options (two-inches and four-inches) help you provide more targeted care to patients. In particular, the two inch depth is ideal for patients with a lighter frame.
