Browse wheelchair cushions.
Who is it for?
- Sunrise describes the JAY GO as a cushion for the client at low risk of skin breakdown who requires mild stability, and its catalogue names three things about the person it has in mind: they may be at low risk of skin breakdown, they may need a comfortable seating surface for symmetrical alignment, and they may be in a wheelchair for limited periods of time.
- Choose the right cushion in a seating assessment with an occupational therapist or physiotherapist.
Will it fit?
- Sunrise sizes this cushion to the person.
- Its manual says to match the width to the hips when seated and to let the cushion stop 1" to 2" (25 to 51 mm) short of the back of the knees, with the material tags and the pelvic loading area at the rear of the wheelchair.
How does it work?
- The JAY GO has two foam layers and no moving parts.
- The finished cushion is 3" (76 mm) thick and weighs 2.5 lbs (1.13 kg) in the 16" x 18" size.
What are the care limits?
- Take the cover off the foam base, close the zipper, and machine wash it in warm water; then drip dry or tumble dry on low heat.
What else compares?
- JAY Fusion cushion: a contoured foam base with a fluid insert.
- J2 Series Deep Contour cushion: a foam and fluid cushion with a deep pelvic well.
