Moulding and Supportive Filling

Etac LeanOnMe Cushions are filled with a granulated foam that's specially designed to allow limbs to comfortably sink and then be held in the desired position. It also has elastic properties that allow the pillow to repeatedly bear weight, absorb and redistribute pressure.

Includes a Soft-Touch Pillow Cover

Included with this model of the LeanOnMe Mini is a soft-touch cover that's comfortable enough for long-term use, as well as encouraging healthy air circulation and helping to regulate temperature.

Also Available With a Waterproof Hygiene Cover

This LeanOnMe Cushion is also available with a hygiene cover, which is waterproof and can be wiped clean with disinfectant. This cover is ideal for patients with bladder or incontinence issues, or for severely immobile patients who don't leave bed to eat or bathe.

Specialised Support For Small Body Parts

This miniature model of the Etac LeanOnMe is is designed to give close support to small body parts. Ankles, undersides of knees and hands can be hard to support with larger pillows because of their size and the LeanOnMe Mini is a fantastic solution

Fill in Gaps Between Larger Positioning Cushions and Mattress

When using a larger positioning cushion for support, there can be gaps between it and a bed or chair. This is particularly common if the pillow is not lying flat or the patient is resting at an angle. The Etac Mini can fill gaps like these, without comprising the soothing support that the larger pillow is providing.

Can Also Help Relax Patients and Reduce Anxiety

Enclosing a patient in positioning cushions can gently stimulate their sense of touch to help with agitation and reduce anxiety and anger.
