BetterLiving Foam Cushion with Gel Insert
Low risk pressure relief gel cushion
The BetterLiving Foam Cushion with Gel Insert offers an effective solution for individuals requiring basic pressure relief and stable positioning during extended periods of sitting. Designed for users assessed at a low risk of pressure injury, this cushion combines a supportive high-density polyurethane foam core with a water-based gel bladder for enhanced comfort and skin protection. The gel insert provides a cooling effect while aiding in pressure redistribution, making it suitable for use on wheelchairs, mobility scooters, and standard dining or office chairs. Featuring a low-shear outer cover to minimise friction and a non-slip base for secure placement, it supports everyday independence and comfort for NDIS participants, aged care residents, and community users.
At the heart of the cushion is a patented water-based gel bladder designed to conform to the user's shape and redistribute pressure effectively. This insert helps dissipate heat to provide a cooling effect during extended sitting periods. It is highly beneficial for individuals who experience discomfort from prolonged sitting, enhancing overall seating tolerance and skin health.
The cushion features a core made from high-density polyurethane foam that provides a stable and supportive foundation. This firm base prevents the user from bottoming out, ensuring consistent immersion and envelopment for postural stability. It delivers reliable support that is essential for basic wheelchair seating or everyday chairs in home environments.
Equipped with a specially designed low-shear outer cover, the cushion actively reduces friction forces against the skin. Minimising shear is a critical component in preventing skin breakdown and superficial pressure injuries for vulnerable users. The cover is also durable and easy to maintain, promoting excellent hygiene standards for daily use.
The cushion incorporates a non-slip base that ensures it remains securely in position on various seating surfaces, including wheelchairs and armchairs. It also includes two practical side handles, making it exceptionally easy for carers or users to transport and adjust. This versatility makes it an ideal, multipurpose seating solution for community and facility settings.
