Clinically tested and cost-effective, the Align Mattress promotes healthier skin, enhanced relaxation, and peace of mind for both users and caregivers.

Innovative Shear Reduction Design Proven to Protect Skin Integrity

Unlike traditional foam mattresses, the Align Mattress with Shear Reduction Technology one of the most damaging contributors to pressure injuries shearing. Its innovative SRT design uses a low-friction layer between two foam sections to absorb and redirect shear forces that commonly occur during repositioning or bed articulation. A third-party clinical study conducted by Durham College’s Nursing and Engineering departments confirms the effectiveness of this approach.

Added Safety With Raised Bolster Option

For clients at risk of falling or requiring enhanced support, the Raised Bolster version includes an additional 3" at the head and foot sections. This modification supports safe entry and exit through the middle of the mattress, aligning with fall prevention and restraint reduction protocols.
