Installation Guide

Set up the Skil-Care Bed Support Bolster System quickly and securely:

1. Unpack and Inspect: Remove the system from packaging and verify all components are intact.
2. Position on Mattress: Place the connected wedges on the bed, aligning them along the patient's sides for support.
3. Secure with Straps: Wrap the four included straps around the movable bed frame section and fasten tightly.
4. Adjust for Fit: Ensure the 30-degree wedges provide proper pressure relief without restricting movement.
5. Clean Prior to Use: Wipe nylon surfaces with a standard disinfectant for optimal hygiene.
6. Add Optional Pad: If desired, attach the separate absorbent pad using the hook-and-loop fasteners.
7. Test for Safety: Confirm stability to prevent rolling or entrapment; adjust as needed for patient comfort.

Caution: For low air-loss mattresses, use diapers that allow airflow or opt for the mesh bolster model to maintain mattress functionality.
