Product Details
Edge-to-Edge Safety and Comfort Without Side Rails or Restraints
The Span-America Wings® Raised Perimeter Mattress combines skin protection, pressure redistribution, and enhanced patient safety in one elegant design. Featuring 8" high raised perimeter bolsters, this mattress discourages unassisted bed exits while filling the space between the mattress and side rails - reducing entrapment risk and eliminating the need for physical restraints.
Tissue-friendly from edge to edge, the entire surface - including the perimeter—is lined with Geo-Matt® foam, featuring over 800 articulating cells that reduce shear and improve airflow. Ideal for long-term care, rehab, and dementia settings, the Wings mattress is a proactive step toward restraint-free, fall-reducing care.
✅ Key Features:
- Raised Perimeter Support (Wings®): Prevents unassisted exits and gently redirects movement away from bed edges
