Polyurethane and Viscoelastic Memory Foam
This cushion is mad with a polyurethane foam base and viscoelastic foam top, which is ideal for high-risk patients for several reasons. The polyurethane foam provides a stable base, while the viscoelastic memory foam conforms to the body's contours, enhancing comfort and reducing pressure points, promoting circulation and tissue health. This combination of materials helps alleviate pressure, improving the user's comfort and reducing pressure build-up.
Who Needs this Pressure Cushion?
Wheelchair cushions are designed to provide extra support and protection for regular wheelchair users. This cushion from Harley is designed for users who find themselves in the "High Risk" category: users who may need to spend extended periods in a wheelchair or other seating, thereby increasing the likelihood of them developing pressure sores or other complaints associated with being relatively immobile on a somewhat regular basis.
Waterproof Cushion Cover
This cushion comes with a waterproof, multi-stretch, breathable cushion cover. This keeps the cushion (and more importantly, those who use it) safe while it is being used. To wash the cushion cover, simply pop it in the washing machine on the coolest possible temperature, and leave it to dry.
How Can the Harley Cushion Help?
The proven design of this cushion makes this a firm favourite with clinicians. Its geometrically contoured nodular sections operate independently of one another, allowing maximum weight distribution and pressure relief. This wheelchair cushion is designed to be supremely comfortable and also helps keep skin cool thanks to the nodular design, which encourages airflow through and around the cushion and body.
