Support surfaces
and foam mattresses
A support surface
is a pressure-reducing device, such as a foam mattress, that reduces the
chance of pressure ulcer formation in at risk patients. Support surfaces
such as foam mattresses redistribute pressure more evenly, thereby reducing
pressure under areas of the body most susceptible to breakdown like the
heels or the sacral area.
Foam mattresses are
used as part of a pressure ulcer management program to reduce the incidence
of pressure ulcers and enhance patient comfort.
Foam mattresses and
other support surfaces are used by nurses, including wound care specialists
in the care of at risk residents or patients. The support surfaces manufactured
by Casco are used in long term care facilities, hospitals, and/or home
care.
Casco has been manufacturing
support surfaces, including foam mattresses for key healthcare companies
for over 25 years.
