Description

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?

Sometimes it is uncomfortable to have legs resting on top of each other when side-lying. The Soft Side-Sleeping Leg Cushion is designed to help make this position more comfortable.

It is possible to remove or add some of the soft hollow-core polyester fibre filling for individual pressure care requirements. This filling is cool and soft next to the body and may help patients stay thermoneutral.

The Cushions come with four adjustable, removable leg straps. The large size has 50cm straps and the small size has 35cm straps. The straps can be cut shorter if desired, and custom sized straps can also be made on request.

Note: We highly recommend purchasing one of the extra covers to use as an outer cover (‘Cover Only’ in the table below). Then, if you want to wash the outer cover, you can just take the cover off without having to wash the entire product.

The ordering options in the drop-down menu are:

Soft Side-Sleeping Leg Cushion A soft, 4-way stretch material Cushion filled with soft hollow-core polyester fibre. Includes four elastic leg straps with Camloc buckles.
Cover Only – Black The same material as the filled Cushion. Fits over the Cushion like a pillowcase.
Cover Only – Blue Waterproof A waterproof, wipeable 4-way stretch cover to go over the Cushion like a pillowcase.
Cover Only – White The same material as the filled Cushion. Fits over the Cushion like a pillowcase.

WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR?

Suitable for a variety of bed positioning and pressure care applications.

BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

When the person is lying on their back, place the cushion between their legs and fasten the two straps around one leg. These do not need to be done up tightly.

If necessary, use the two extra straps to hold the other leg in place. The person is then considered to be restrained, so ensure this is approved and noted in their care plan. Some people may not need to use any straps at all.

Though designed for sleeping, this Cushion may also be used to separate the legs while in a wheelchair, with a black cover to be more discreet.

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT MADE FROM?

Polyester fibre, fabric, elastic, plastic buckles.
