aThe Drive Medical Med-Aire Plus Bariatric Alternating Pressure Mattress System (Model 14030) is specially engineered to meet the needs of bariatric patients requiring advanced pressure relief. Available in 42", 48", and 54" widths, this system supports patients up to 600 lbs and helps prevent and manage pressure ulcers (bedsores) with state-of-the-art alternating pressure and low air loss technology.

The system includes a digital control unit and high-efficiency compressor, which inflates 20 individual 10-inch deep air cells to deliver continuous pressure redistribution. A cell-on-cell design maintains support during power outages for up to 24 hours, reducing the risk of bottoming out.

The intuitive digital pump offers four cycle times (10, 15, 20, 25 minutes) and customizable weight settings for individualized comfort. Features like Auto-Firm and Seat Inflate make transfers and repositioning easier for caregivers. Built-in visual and audible alarms immediately notify staff of any drop in pressure, ensuring patient safety.

A quilted, removable nylon cover is included, offering fluid resistance and low shear to protect fragile skin from friction and moisture. The cover is soft, breathable, and easy to clean.

This Med-Aire Plus model is a top-tier choice for hospitals, nursing homes, and home care settings where comfort, skin protection, and durability are key.
