Jay Care Cushion

Factors to Consider
There are many things to consider when selecting pressure care products including nutrition, skin moisture, level of mobility, age, shear, friction, location of pressure ulcer (if present) and hygiene. Any comments regarding level of pressure care is a suggestion made by suppliers as a guide to assist with selection, and this may differ from brand to brand. When selecting pressure care products it is strongly advised that a comprehensive assessment is undertaken by a health professional to encourage correct product selection and monitoring of product effectiveness.
Jay cushions are designed to fit the individual dimensions of the user. Sunrise Medical are able to add foam rails to their Jay range of cushions to extend seat width or depth. This may assist if the dimensions of the user and the wheelchair vary. This can be completed at no additional cost at time of ordering.



Short Description
The Jay Care cushion is a one piece design which integrates the Jay Flow Fluid Pad with the base. It is curved underneath to facilitate a level sitting surface when placed on slung wheelchair upholstery. The manufacturer states that this cushion is designed primarily for a person with moderate risk of skin breakdown and who sits in a slumped position, or with a fixed posterior pelvic tilt.
