Medi-Soft Firm Ring Cushion

Medi-Soft Firm Ring Cushion

The Medi-Soft Firm Ring Cushion is a moulded firm ring cushion with a central opening, supplied with a removable cotton cover and carry bag. Its 44 cm outside diameter provides a broad seated support surface, while the 12 cm centre opening reduces direct contact beneath the central area.

Firm or Soft Ring Cushion?

Choose this Firm Ring Cushion when a more supportive, structured feel is preferred. The Medi-Soft Foam Ring Cushion uses softer eggshell-style foam and sits slightly higher at approximately 8 cm. Both have a 44 cm outside diameter and 12 cm central opening, so the main choice is the feel and support level rather than overall footprint.

Pressure-Care Note

Ring cushions can change where pressure is concentrated while sitting. For users with an existing pressure injury, fragile skin or high pressure-injury risk, cushion choice should be guided by an appropriate healthcare professional rather than relying on shape alone.

Choosing and Positioning the Support

Medi-Soft Firm Ring Cushion should support the intended body area without forcing the user into an uncomfortable posture. Consider the chair or bed dimensions, the person’s body size and the amount of firmness or contouring preferred. Small changes in placement can alter how the support feels, so it is worth taking time to position it while the user is settled in their normal sitting or lying position.

Check the fit again after a short period of use and inspect the skin where pressure or heat may build up. Covers and foam components should be cared for according to their labels so their shape and finish are maintained. Where the product is being considered for pressure care, persistent pain or significant postural needs, seek advice from an appropriate health professional.
