The Drive Medical Med-Aire 5″ Air plus 3″ Foam Base Alternating Pressure & Low Air Loss Mattress System (Model Number 14530) is a comprehensive therapeutic support surface engineered for the prevention, treatment, and management of pressure ulcers in home, hospital, or long-term care environments, featuring an active mattress replacement design that combines alternating pressure and low air loss therapies to optimize pressure redistribution, shear/friction reduction, and microclimate control while supporting users up to 350 pounds across its 80-inch long by 36-inch wide by 8-inch high dimensions for seamless integration with standard bed frames. Its innovative construction incorporates eighteen 5-inch individual air bladders layered over a resilient 3-inch high-density foam base for enhanced immersion and power outage protection, ensuring continuous support even during electrical interruptions, complemented by a removable, quilted non-shear, anti-microbial cover that is fluid-resistant, vapor-permeable, and fully enclosed to safeguard against moisture, bacteria, and odors while facilitating easy wipe-down cleaning and machine washing for superior hygiene. The included quiet, adjustable pump delivers 8 liters per minute of airflow with a 10-minute alternating cycle or static mode for customizable firmness via patient weight settings, promoting optimal comfort and compliance, while built-in audio and visual alarms alert to low air pressure for added safety, and a pillow function provides head stability to minimize neck strain during repositioning or rest. Ideal for bedridden seniors, post-surgical patients, or individuals at high risk of skin breakdown due to limited mobility or chronic conditions, this system includes quick-release CPR valves for rapid deflation in emergencies, easy-to-replace air cells for low-maintenance servicing, and HCPCS code E0277 for reimbursement eligibility, arriving pre-assembled for immediate deployment and fostering greater patient dignity and caregiver efficiency through its reliable, non-disruptive performance. Backed by Drive Medical’s one-year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship for the original purchaser when acquired through authorized dealers, this essential mattress system delivers enduring quality, reliability, and peace of mind for comprehensive wound care and enhanced well-being.

We simply believe that offering a great value to caregivers, seniors, disabled individuals, and those managing chronic conditions or recuperating from surgery or an injury is the right thing to do.

We source our products directly from the manufacturer and ship out every order ourselves, passing along to you the savings we achieve by buying in bulk and not outsourcing fulfillment.

While most “business people” tell us our markup is too low, we disagree. The products we sell help improve quality of life for your loved ones. Instead of focusing on how much profit we can make, we focus on how affordable we can make it for you.

Unlike marketplaces and websites that carry thousands of items, we pool our buying power into a select group of hospital-quality products to deliver unbelievable savings to our customers.
