Allay GelFlex Foam Pressure Redistribution Mattress with Incontinence Cover offers a dynamic means of relieving pressure from common areas of buildup while also significantly reducing shear during movement. The anti-shear design of the mattress starts at its core. A unique, low-friction material lines the core, separating the top and bottom layers of foam in the mattress. This material ensures that in the event of movement--such as the mattress moving from a lying to a seated position--that the layers adjust accordingly to prevent any shearing against the patient. This is a vital feature, as this shearing effect can be abrasive against the patient's skin, which can, in turn, contribute to skin breakdown during extended periods of time in bed.
What sets this mattress apart from the other versions of the Allay GelFlex mattresses, however, is its incontinence cover. The incontinence cover is a five-way stretch cover that is composed of a comfortable yet moisture-resistant material that makes cleanup after issues of incontinence a fast and easy process. Simply remove, clean, and put the cover back on the mattress.
The Allay GelFlex mattress is available in multiple different size options: a super single size of 48" by 80"; a full XL size of 54" by 80"; and a queen size of 60" by 80". These sizes each boast an impressive weight capacity of 350 pounds. This weight capacity, combined with the selection of sizes, ensures that the mattress can be used by a wide array of patients.
