Skil-Care 30° Bed Bolster System with Slide Sheet
Skil-Care 30° Bed Bolster Positioning System — Foam Wedge & Slider Sheet
Overview
The Skil-Care 30° Bed Bolster System is a positioning setup that holds someone comfortably and securely on their side at a 30-degree angle — the position often preferred for resting weight off the tailbone and settling into a stable, supported side-lying posture. A foam wedge sets and maintains the angle, while connecting bolsters keep everything in place so the person doesn't gradually slide out of position over time.
It's built to be practical and adaptable. An interchangeable slider sheet — available in nylon or in a mesh version suited to low-air-loss mattresses — connects to the bolsters to stabilize them, and the system can be set up with anywhere from one to four bolsters in a choice of lengths, so you tailor the support to the person and the bed. The bolsters are finished in an easy, wipe-clean LSII cover, and the system carries a 6-month warranty. Choose your configuration below.

Equipment Specialist Insight: The clever part of this system is that the slider sheet and bolsters work together — the sheet connects to the bolsters so the whole setup stays put, which is what separates it from just propping someone with loose pillows that drift out of place within the hour. The 30-degree angle is the one most people are aiming for when they want a stable side-lying position that keeps weight off the tailbone. Two choices to make: the slider sheet material — go with mesh if you're on a low-air-loss mattress so it doesn't block the airflow, and nylon otherwise — and the number of bolsters, where more bolsters give more containment and fewer keep it simple, up to four. The wipe-clean covers matter day to day. Match the configuration to the person's size and how much support they need, and remember it's a positioning aid, so it works alongside a repositioning routine rather than replacing one.

Should I choose the nylon or mesh slider sheet?
Choose mesh if you're using a low-air-loss mattress, so it doesn't restrict the airflow the mattress relies on. Choose nylon for a standard mattress.
How do the bolsters and slider sheet work together?
The slider sheet connects to the bolsters, which stabilizes them and keeps the whole setup from shifting — so the position holds instead of drifting the way loose pillows do.
How many bolsters do I need?
The system works with one to four bolsters. More bolsters give more containment and support; fewer keep it simpler. Match it to the person's size and how much support is needed.
