WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?

The Bed Wedge – Small – Angled, is a very useful triangular foam wedge that can be used in a variety of ways to help support people in bed.

The waterproof vinyl covering can be wiped clean and can be placed in a pillowcase for patient comfort.

WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR?

For use by people who need support in bed. See below for suggestions on various ways the Wedge can be used.

BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

  • Back Support: When sitting up in bed, the Wedge can be placed behind the person’s back. This provides good support for the lower back/posterior to lean against. A normal pillow can also be used for upper back support.
  • Anti-Slide Wedge: When the person is sitting up in bed, place the Wedge under the legs hard up against the groin. The Wedge will comfortably help the person to stay in position sitting up, and help prevent them sliding back down the bed.
  • Anti-Roll Wedge: To help people who need to sleep on their side but roll onto their backs, place the Wedge against their back. The Wedge is very stable and small enough to go under the bed clothes.
  • Cradle Wedge: To take the weight of the blankets off the person’s feet, place the Wedge at the bottom of the bed, under the covers.

The Bed Wedge Non-Slip Sleeve (sold separately) is made from a poly-cotton material that helps insulate the Patient’s skin while they are resting on the Bed Wedge. This can help prevent perspiration. The Miracle Grip part of the Sleeve is positioned underneath the Wedge, so when the Patient’s weight is resting on the Wedge it will stay in place.

Using with a Positioning (Receptor) Sheet:

Bed Wedges are available with some Hook Tape under the base to attach to Pelican’s Sleep System Positioning Sheet.
