The ComfortGlide® Foam Wedge (11″ width × 5″ height × 16″ length) offers reliable positional support for patients in bed, especially when tilt or angled positioning is required. Featuring a non-slip base and high-density foam core, this wedge from ComfortGlide helps maintain the recommended 30° or 15° tilt safely and stably.
The double-sided nonskid cover ensures the wedge stays in place on the mattress surface, while the durable foam core maintains its shape and support over time. The cover is designed for easy cleaning per facility hygiene protocols.
This positioning wedge is ideal for sacral support, pressure injury prevention turning protocols, tilted positioning, or whenever stable elevation is needed in acute, long-term care, or home settings.
