Description
Drive folding bed wedges are foam positioning wedges in three heights: 7 inches (178 mm) is RTL3825, 10 inches (254 mm) is RTL3826, and 12 inches (305 mm) is RTL3827. All three share a 23 by 23 inch (584 by 584 mm) footprint.
What does it do and how does it work?
- The wedge raises the upper body to the angle set by its height.
- It folds for storage and travel, and has a carry handle.
- Each wedge comes with a cover.
- The core is foam, and the cover zips closed.
Who is it for, and who should choose something else?
- It suits a person who wants a portable wedge for reading, breathing comfort or upper-body positioning.
- For a care plan, ask the clinician which height to use.
- It is not a hospital bed and not a rail.
Will it fit?
- The footprint is 23 by 23 inches (584 by 584 mm) on all three sizes.
- The height is the size you order: 7, 10 or 12 inches (178, 254 or 305 mm).
- Check the mattress width before ordering; the wedge sits across the upper body.
Using it day to day
- Place the wedge on the mattress under the upper body, with the high edge toward the head.
- Fold it flat for storage or travel and use the carry handle.
What does it work with, and what are its limits?
- The wedge weighs 2.4 lb (1.1 kg) at 7 in, 2.9 lb (1.3 kg) at 10 in, and 3.4 lb (1.5 kg) at 12 in.
- We confirm a safe user weight before you order for a heavier person.
- It is a positioning wedge, not a bed rail.
