Description
The Drive Medical Gravity 9 Long Term Care Pressure Redistribution Mattress (Elevated Perimeter, Medium) is a four-layer foam mattress engineered to reduce pressure injuries in institutional and home long-term care environments. The elevated perimeter helps prevent roll-off and adds a sense of security for residents with limited mobility, while the inner heel-slope channel cuts gradually reduce pressure at the calves and heels — a common site of skin breakdown. Its fluid-proof, flame-retardant, low-shear cover is machine washable, simplifying laundry protocols in care settings.
