Overview
Important Information
The best way to avoid problems related to pressure sores is to understand their causes and your role in
a skin management program. Your therapist and physician should be consulted if you have questions
regarding individual limitations and needs.
All cushions should be selected carefully. Working with your therapist and physician is the best way to
assure that a cushion choice matches your individual needs. As the needs of the individual become more
complex, cushion evaluation becomes more important.
