Ultimate Healthcare 30° Positioning Wedge – Memory Foam Pressure Relief Cushion
The Ultimate Healthcare 30° Positioning Wedge is expertly designed to provide effective pressure redistribution for individuals at risk of pressure ulcers. Its ergonomic construction uses a combination of viscoelastic memory foam and a resilient stabilising core to maintain a consistent 30° lateral tilt, reducing pressure on sensitive areas such as the sacrum, trochanter, and lower back. This makes the wedge an essential component in care settings where pressure management is a priority.
The memory foam core adapts to the user’s body shape, offering tailored support and comfort while relieving stress on high-risk pressure points. The high-resilience stabilising nub ensures that the wedge maintains its intended angle, preventing collapse or slumping over time and providing consistent, reliable positioning for prolonged use. This combination of stability and adaptability makes it suitable for both clinical and home care applications.
Hygiene and practicality are key aspects of the wedge’s design. The outer cover is made from a bi-stretch, waterproof, and vapour-permeable polyurethane material that supports infection control while remaining soft and comfortable against the skin. This durable cover is easy to wipe clean, helping caregivers maintain a high standard of hygiene without compromising user comfort. The wedge also features a non-slip base for secure positioning on beds, mattresses, or other surfaces.
Designed for versatility, the wedge is available in left and right configurations, allowing care providers to implement tailored positioning plans that suit the individual needs of each patient. Its lightweight construction and convenient carry handle make it easy to transport, reposition, or adjust as required. The wedge is suitable for users of varying mobility levels, offering safe and effective lateral tilt and postural support for pressure relief and comfort.
By combining memory foam adaptability with a stable support structure, the 30° Positioning Wedge offers both comfort and clinical reliability. It is ideal for users who require consistent lateral tilt for pressure ulcer prevention, rehabilitation, or enhanced support during rest. The wedge ensures that pressure is redistributed effectively, reducing the risk of tissue breakdown while promoting optimal posture and spinal alignment.
The Ultimate Healthcare 30° Positioning Wedge integrates thoughtfully designed features for caregivers as well. The non-slip base enhances stability and reduces the risk of movement during repositioning or patient transfers, while the carry handle facilitates safe handling and transport. The wipe-clean cover allows for straightforward maintenance, supporting infection control protocols in clinical and home care environments.
