Span America Geo-Mattress with wings

Span America Geo-Mattress with wings fills in the space between the bottom of the side rail and the mattress surface, helping to prevent impingement of extremities. It cradles the resident and helps to prevent injury by discouraging independent exits from bed and gently urging user away from danger positions near the edge of the mattress. By gently urging the user away from the edge of the bed, its tissue-friendly raised perimeter can help reduce the risk of accidental falls. When bed rails are in place, Geo-Mattress with wings can help keep the user away from potentially hazardous positions between the rail and the mattress, as well as from contact with the rails themselves.
