This build of the J2 Plus suits a bariatric client who needs postural support and a surface that will not drag on their skin, and for whom a foam loading area is the right call.
The cushion is a pre-contoured foam base shaped for bariatric seating, with femoral loading and a defined pelvic area to keep the client back in the chair and take weight off the ischials. The foam insert kit fills the loading area, is fit and forget, and copes with the handling a cushion gets in a busy home or facility.
The low shear cover is the other half of the story. During hoist transfers and repositioning the cover surface moves with the client, so tissue is not being dragged across the cushion each time. For carers doing several transfers a day, that reduces a risk they cannot otherwise control. The base takes positioning components and can be modified where a client sits asymmetrically.
