Mattress Information

Please make your mattress choice below.

Forte Sovereign ("purple mattress") - a static foam mattress designed to distribute pressure while also allowing the user to maintain their ability to move around on the bed for transfers, dressing, etc.

Hotel Mattress - a combination mattress that utilises a Forte Sovereign mattress as the base, with a 50mm memory foam overlay to increase immersion. This improves pressure distribution and comfort but is more difficult to move around on.

18cm Air Mattress - Talley Quattro Plus alternating air mattress. A mid-level air mattress that aims to provide alternating pressure relief for people who at high risk of pressure injury.

24cm Air Mattress - Talley Quattro Acute alternating air mattress. A top-level air mattress that aims to provide a high degree of alternating pressure relief for people who at very high risk of pressure injury.

All of our Shower Commodes have a pressure management seat cushion specially developed for those at high risk of skin breakdowns, calf strap and adjustable foot height. In the event we do not have you specified choice available at the time we will endeavour to hire one similar. If we cannot, we will inform you.

At Sargood, we have an inactive sleep over shift that does not provide overnight care from 12:00am - 6:30am.

Our Occupational Therapist, David Simpson, has worked with people with SCI for over 15 years, and as well as being able to discuss any of the regular OT topics he has a particular interest in seating and electronic assistive technology.
