Soft Skin Foam Overlays

For patients confined to bed for extended periods, pressure injuries are a constant threat—and skin health becomes a daily priority for caregivers and clinical staff alike. The Soft Skin collection focuses on therapeutic foam overlays engineered to redistribute pressure, reduce shear, and keep vulnerable skin intact over the days and weeks that matter most.

At the center of this collection is the Geo-Matt Therapeutic Foam Overlay, available in both full-length mattress sizes (80 L x 33 W x 3-1/2 H inch) and shorter configurations (72 L x 34 W x 3-1/2 H inch) to fit standard hospital and home-care beds. Its segmented, individually cut foam cells flex independently to conform to the body, easing the peak pressures that build over bony prominences like the heels, sacrum, and hips. Each overlay supports up to a 250-pound weight capacity, making it suitable for a broad range of patients in acute, long-term, and home settings.

The name of the collection comes from the Soft Skin sleeve cover that encases each overlay. This cover is designed to minimize friction and shear against fragile skin while providing a low-moisture, breathable surface that helps manage heat and humidity—two frequent contributors to skin breakdown. For anyone weighing whether a foam overlay is enough versus a powered alternate-pressure surface, foam overlays like the Geo-Matt are a practical, quiet, maintenance-free choice for patients at low-to-moderate risk, and they layer directly over an existing mattress without motors or setup.

When you're choosing a surface, match the overlay length and width to the bed frame, confirm the patient's weight falls within capacity, and consider how repositioning routines will complement the surface.
