Incontinence is a common reason an air cell cushion gets retired early. Moisture works its way into the cover, the cushion starts to smell, and the pressure care prescription quietly stops being used. This incontinence cover keeps fluid out of the cell structure so the cushion stays usable.
It goes on in place of the standard cover and gives the seating surface a fluid resistant barrier that can be wiped over between uses and washed properly when it needs it. For the client that means no loss of pressure redistribution from the cushion underneath, and for the carer it means a spill is a five minute job.
This cover suits Star Standard Air, StarLock and Stabil Air cushions. Keeping a spare on hand is worth doing, so the client is never sitting on bare cushion while one is in the wash.
