Vicair®: Premium Skin Protection Cushions

Pressure injuries are a huge issue within any healthcare organization. Another common issue is frequent staff turnover, making caregiver training on equipment and proper use difficult. Something I hear a lot is, “we don’t have time to be checking a cushion on a daily basis.”
