Reusable positioners are engineered for consistent clinical performance, long-term cost control, and patient safety. Unlike disposable products – which vary in quality, firmness, performance efficacy, skin safety and anti-microbial properties. Disposables must be used on a single patient, then discarded after limited use – the clinically proven reusable support solutions we offer maintain therapeutic positioning, pressure redistribution, and structural integrity over time, delivering predictable outcomes and reducing overall spend by a significant margin.
Actually, disposables do not typically have anti-bacterial properties in their materials. That is why they can only be used for one patient, then must be thrown away. Although disposables should be thrown away when contaminated (i.e from urine, stool, wound drainage, other fluids, etc) the contamination may not be visible or can be ignored, making it possible for the disposable wedge to be the root cause of nosocomial infection of a pressure wound.
Hospital-grade re-usable positioning devices for pressure injury prevention like the Bedsore Rescue Positioning cushions meet or exceed strict hospital regulatory standards because they are manufactured with infection-control antimicrobial materials. Bacteria cannot grow on the surface. Soiling and debris can be easily cleaned with validated cleaning solutions commonly used in a hospital environment.
Reusable systems reduce total cost of ownership by lowering recurring supply expenses, minimizing waste, and supporting consistent patient positioning that helps prevent pressure injuries before they occur. The result is fewer pressure injury incidents, reduced staff time spent repositioning patients, improved patient comfort, and measurable savings that extend well beyond the initial purchase.

Our solutions are designed for acute-care and post-acute hospital environments, with a primary focus on:
Our Bedsore Rescue Cushions and Pillows serve any care environment
We support nursing teams, nurse managers, wound care clinicians, and quality teams responsible for preventing hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs).
The solution addresses the root causes of pressure injuries, including:
By combining pressure relief, low-friction materials, and standardized repositioning support, it helps nursing teams execute best practices more consistently, which is key to reducing HAPI incidence and severity.
No. In fact, the goal is the opposite.
The solution is designed to:
Most units report smoother workflows and less staff fatigue, especially during high-acuity shifts.
Training is intentionally targeted toward meaningful use skills and how to manage common complications that are at the root cause of HAPI development.
Most nursing teams are fully comfortable using the solution and applying the principles of meaningful use within:
The solution fits seamlessly into existing turning and repositioning protocols – no major behavior changes required.
No. It supports and enhances existing protocols, as recommended by National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (NPIAP) and European Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (EPIAP).
The solution is designed to:
It complements your current mattress surfaces, turning schedules, and skin assessment routines.
Patient comfort is a key design consideration.
Benefits include:
Many facilities report better patient cooperation and fewer complaints related to repositioning discomfort.
Yes.
The solution is grounded as advised by National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (NPAIP) and European Pressure Injury Advisory Panels (EPIAP).
Yes.
By making proper repositioning easier and more consistent, the solution helps:
This can be especially valuable during quality reviews, audits, and root-cause analyses.
Results vary by unit and patient population, but facilities commonly report:
Many hospitals begin with a 30–90 day pilot to measure unit-specific outcomes.
Pressure injuries are costly- both clinically and financially.
By helping prevent HAPIs, the solution can contribute to:
Cost justification is typically evaluated during a pilot or limited rollout.
Implementation support is provided upon request, and typically includes:
The goal is to ensure smooth adoption without disrupting patient care.
Yes. We offer small and large positioning wedges for malnourished and Bariatric patients. (link to specifications chart)
Specific configurations may be recommended based on patient population.
Most hospitals begin with a limited pilot on a high-risk unit (often ICU or step-down).
This allows nursing leadership to:
