Description
The Drive Medical Gravity 8 Long Term Care Pressure Redistribution Mattress with Elevated Perimeter (Medium — 80″) combines the deluxe multi-layer foam pressure redistribution of the Gravity 8 series with a raised foam border that supports safer patient positioning. The elevated perimeter helps define the sleeping zone clearly for both the patient and caregiver, reducing lateral movement risk during repositioning without impeding standard side-rail operation. Inside, the three-layer foam system — including a channel-cut dedicated heel section — addresses pressure relief across the full body, and the waterproof, fire-retardant cover meets the stringent hygiene demands of institutional long-term care.
