Use Skil-Care’s In-Bed Patient Positioning System to position the patient securely on his side. It facilitates turning and repositioning the patient while reducing caregiver exposure to back injury.
System Components: The system includes two vinyl-covered positioning wedges and a 40” x 48” bed pad. The positioning wedges have Velcro® strips that secure to the bed pad to keep the wedges in place. The three-part bed pad features a soft, brushed tricot top, a middle layer of absorbent foam, and a bottom layer of urine-proof vinyl laminated to cotton, making it effective for comfort, pressure relief, and incontinence protection. This system may also be used for side-positioning a patient during mat assessment.

Healing Support: These wedges aid in the management and healing of existing pressure sores, promoting better health outcomes and comfort for individuals with limited mobility.
Optimal Inclination: Offering a 45-degree angle of inclination, these wedges provide critical support, reducing pressure on the hipbone and coccyx for pain relief and improved positioning.
