This bed has a stiff foam pad all around the exterior for this reason I believe.

Is this mattress stiff enough so that I self transfer? If I am sitting up in the bed and upright, can I press my hands into the mattress and get enough support to lift my behind off of the mattress in order to slide over to the chair?

does this mattress alleviate the need to be turned? I have a pretty old a lateral rotational mattress which affords me the opportunity to live by myself without having to be turned. I know it is inevitably going to break down one day, so I need to look into new mattresses.

Hi Billy,
Check out the Genesis Mattress, I had one for a short while, after I came home from the hospital. It was very comfortable & gently turned you if you set it to turn.
I had one for a couple of weeks when I came home from the hospital & rehab. I have a Luminex Air Flo Mattress which is pretty comfortable. Good luck!
Friends, Lindaf
