Frequently Asked Questions About Foam Mattress
What is a pressure relief mattress?
A pressure relief mattress reduces pressure on the body to prevent bedsores (pressure ulcers). Types include foam mattresses, alternating pressure mattresses that inflate/deflate air cells, and low air loss mattresses for maximum pressure relief. Essential for anyone spending extended time in bed.
Does ADP cover pressure relief mattresses in Ontario?
Yes, ADP covers pressure relief mattresses when prescribed for pressure ulcer prevention or treatment. Coverage includes alternating pressure mattresses, low air loss mattresses, and therapeutic foam mattresses. ADP pays up to 75% for eligible Ontario residents. We handle all ADP applications.
What is the difference between alternating pressure and low air loss mattresses?
Alternating pressure mattresses have air cells that inflate and deflate in cycles to shift pressure points. Low air loss mattresses continuously circulate air to keep skin cool and dry. Low air loss is better for existing wounds and moisture management. Alternating pressure is good for prevention.
Where can I buy a medical mattress in Toronto?
Mobility Specialties sells medical mattresses throughout Toronto and the GTA. We carry innerspring hospital mattresses, foam pressure relief mattresses, alternating pressure systems, and low air loss mattresses. Free delivery available. We also rent air mattresses for short-term needs.
How do I choose the right medical mattress?
Choose based on risk level: Low risk (limited mobility) - foam mattress. Moderate risk (some existing redness) - alternating pressure. High risk (wounds/breakdown) - low air loss. Consider weight capacity, bed compatibility, and whether ADP funding applies. We offer free consultations to help you choose.
Is there an income limit for ADP?
No, ADP has no income testing. All Ontario residents with a valid health card and qualifying disability are eligible regardless of income. The program covers 75% of the cost for all qualifying applicants.
How often can I get new equipment through ADP?
ADP has usage periods for each equipment type. For example, wheelchairs have a 5-year usage period, walkers 5 years, and hospital beds vary. After the usage period, you may qualify for replacement if there is continued medical need.
Can I upgrade my ADP equipment?
Yes, you can choose features beyond what ADP covers and pay the difference. For example, ADP may cover a basic power wheelchair, but you can upgrade to a model with more features. You pay 25% of the approved amount plus any upgrade costs.
What documents do I need for ADP application?
You need: 1) Ontario Health Card, 2) Prescription from your physician stating medical need, 3) Assessment from an authorized ADP vendor like Mobility Specialties. We guide you through gathering all required documentation.
