Feature | Positioning Solutions from ProMed
Gone are the days of a “one-product-for-all-needs” mentality when it comes to positioning cushions. Today, there’s a product for every situation.

We created the list below to help you select the perfect cushions for your residents’ individual requirements. All of these cushions are available from ProMed.

Foam wheelchair cushions are inexpensive, lightweight, provide even support and are available in multiple densities.

Gel wheelchair cushions provide excellent pressure redistribution and are very comfortable.

Gel/foam hybrid cushions combine the benefits of foam and gel cushions.

Air flotation (inflated cell) cushions can be inflated to the resident’s specific needs and can be modified to help relieve pressure sores. They are waterproof and will not bottom out when inflated properly.

Lap positioners provide upper torso support and can help assist with upper body alignment. They also serve as a gentle reminder to residents to stay seated.

Abductor (pommel) cushions hold the legs slightly apart to help keep a resident’s hips and knees properly aligned and reduce forward sliding. They can also be used to help prevent hip dislocation following surgery.

Wedge cushions offer improved posture and slide control.
