Where a client has episodes of incontinence and sits on a Star air cell cushion all day, the cover is what decides how long that cushion lasts. This one is built to stop fluid reaching the air cells.
The fluid resistant surface lets a carer deal with an accident quickly and then get the client back on a clean, dry seating surface, which matters for skin integrity as much as for dignity. The cushion below keeps doing its job, because the cover is cut to sit over the cells without pulling them flat or bridging them, so pressure redistribution is not compromised by the change of cover.
This size suits the StarLock cushion. It is a sensible thing to order in pairs, so one can be laundered while the other is in use.
