The Align mattress is a cutting-edge sleep surface that combines innovative design with practical functionality. At its core, the mattress features patented Shear Reduction Technology (SRT), which allows for 360-degree movement. This unique feature is essential in reducing forces that can potentially damage skin during movement or bed position changes. The technology has been validated through a third-party clinical trial conducted by Durham College's Department of Nursing and Department of Engineering, providing non-biased support for its efficacy.
The mattress is thoughtfully designed with multiple zones to address varying pressure redistribution requirements across different body areas. The head and foot sections are fixed in place, ensuring that the component parts of the mattress 're-set' themselves, maintaining optimal performance over time. A notable feature is the higher cut middle section, which improves immersion without compromising the ease of transfers. This design is complemented by bolstered sides, which provide a sturdy edge for getting in and out of bed.
Practicality and durability are key aspects of the Align mattress. It comes with a stretch incontinent cover, offering protection and ease of maintenance. The standard size is 36 inches wide, 7 inches deep, and 80 inches long, though custom sizes are available to suit various needs. With a weight capacity of 350 pounds and a two-year warranty, the Align offers a robust and reliable sleep solution. For those requiring additional safety features, a Raised Bolster version is available, adding 3 inches to the head and foot section portions of the bolster. This design minimizes fall risks while meeting or exceeding all restraint protocols, making it a versatile choice for various users.
