Hard is better than soft.
According to the sleep habits and physiological characteristics of the elderly, it is more appropriate to choose a mattress with higher hardness.
The body curve matches the mattress.
Let the old man lie flat, and his family will put their hands into his neck, back, waist and buttocks to see if there are any gaps; Turn it over again and feel whether these body parts are suitable for the mattress. If there is basically no gap and the curves are consistent, it means that the mattress is suitable for the elderly to sleep and can bring comfort.
Coconut palm mattress is the first choice.
Coconut palm mattress is moderate in hardness, warm in winter and cool in summer, breathable and hygroscopic, elastic and durable, so it is the first choice for the elderly to choose mattresses.
The appropriate length is height plus 20 cm.
When buying a mattress for the elderly, we should consider the height factor, and leave room for pillows, hands and feet, that is, adding the personal height to 20 cm is the most suitable size, so that the elderly can sleep more easily and have no sense of oppression.
Buy branded products
It is recommended to buy a brand mattress, such as Slim & Prynne's A-B back protector, which is good in material, quality and spring support. Moreover, we should pay attention to the registered trademark, place of origin and name of the factory, and make frequent turnover and regular cleaning.
Turn and clean regularly.
In the first year of purchase and use, the new mattress should be turned up and down every 2~3 months, so that the spring of the mattress can be evenly stressed, and then it can be turned over once every six months. Vacuum the mattress regularly, but don't clean it directly with water or detergent. Don't sit on the edge of the bed often, because the four corners of the mattress are the most fragile. Sitting on the edge of the bed for a long time is easy to damage the edge protection spring.
