Vanguard Underpads by Griffin Care

Vanguard underpads from Griffin Care are built for one job and built to do it well: keeping beds, chairs, and exam surfaces dry and protected. For caregivers managing incontinence at home or staff turning over rooms in a facility, these disposable pads absorb leaks, wick moisture away from the skin, and simplify cleanup — so you spend less time on laundry and more time on care.

The Griffin Care Vanguard Moderate Underpad measures a generous 28 x 30 inches, sized to cover the core of an adult bed or seating area where most leaks occur. The "moderate" absorbency rating suits light-to-medium overnight protection, positional incontinence, and everyday under-buttocks use during changes and transfers. A soft top sheet stays comfortable against the skin, while the fluid-resistant backing helps shield the mattress or cushion beneath.

A common question from first-time buyers: how do I know which absorbency I need? Moderate pads like these are the practical middle ground — more capacity than a basic liner, without the bulk or cost of maximum-absorbency options meant for heavy overnight flooding. If you're layering protection or dealing with occasional leaks rather than constant saturation, moderate is usually the right call. Because they're disposable, they also reduce the odor and infection concerns that come with reusable pads that need frequent washing.

Vanguard underpads work anywhere a dry surface matters: bedside care, wheelchair and recliner seating, changing stations, pet areas, and post-surgical recovery. Buying in bulk keeps the per-pad cost low for households and facilities that go through them daily.
