Pressure ulcers are injuries that can cause significant suffering for those affected, as well as substantial costs for society.
Preventing pressure ulcers requires a solid understanding, and that is why we offer training on the subject. A large proportion of the pressure ulcers that occur within the healthcare system are considered avoidable, and we strive to collaborate with healthcare providers to prevent them.

Using an appropriate mattress is crucial and an important part of preventing pressure ulcers. However, pressure ulcer prevention requires addressing and assessing multiple factors, including skin integrity, tissue perfusion, mobility, nutrition, and overall health. Additionally, patients have unique needs based on their medical conditions and personal circumstances.
When choosing a support surface, it is important to adopt a holistic perspective that ensures all these aspects are considered together. In our mattress guide, we address these risk factors and the patient’s needs to help guide the selection of the right type of mattress.
