Alerta Partner Cushion System
AlertaWhat is it?
The Alerta Partner is an alternating pressure relieving cushion system with a sealed 2" foam base for effective prevention and treatment of users up to high risk of developing a pressure ulcer in hospital, nursing and care home environments.
How does it work?
The cushion is comprised of multiple air-filled cells. The system is supplied with a pump that inflates and deflates these cells in an alternating fashion over 12 minute period, ensuring the client is never resting on the same part of the cushion for too long. This reduces the risk that pressure sores will develop.
The individual cushions inflate and deflate periodically to ensure no part of the body is ever resting
on the cushion for too long, reducing the risk that pressure sores will develop
Who can use it?
The system is designed for any client who is at a high risk of developing pressure related sores. It is ideal for use in hospitals and care homes for clients who are likely to remain in their chair for a long period of time.
What is included?
The system comprises a comfortable airflow cushion with a waterproof and vapour permeable cover. The cover is antimicrobial and can even be machine washed! It is supplied with an easy to use air pump that inflates and deflates sections of the cushion automatically. The pump features visual and audible alarms for low pressure and power failure to ensure the client is always at the ideal setting.
The Alerta Partner has been manufactured to comply with the most stringent quality and in-use guidelines.
