Medline Mattress Assessment Program

Damaged or worn mattresses could be doing more harm than good. Pressure redistribution mattresses and regularly repositioning patients are two factors that can reduce the risk of pressure ulcers. However, over time, pressure-redistributing mattresses begin to lose their effectiveness and need to be replaced.

Medline’s comprehensive Mattress Assessment Program is designed to help healthcare facilities reach their wound prevention and treatment goals.

A member of our sales team will work with your clinical champion to evaluate your surfaces.
