JAY GO Cushion

The JAY GO cushion is Sunrise Medical's 3 inch (7.6 cm) dual-layer foam wheelchair cushion with a Dartex moisture-resistant cover for a person at low risk of skin breakdown who needs mild stability in Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. The current card rates 14 to 21 inch widths at 330 lbs (150 kg) and 22 to 24 inch widths at 500 lbs (227 kg). A 16 by 18 inch size weighs 2.5 lbs (1.1 kg).

This is the stretch-cover foam step on the JAY ladder. Widths and depths both run 14 to 24 inches (36 to 61 cm). It is a family size, not a single 16 by 16 cushion.

Who this cushion is for

The JAY GO cushion fits a person who wants a softer top layer over a firmer base, and whose therapist still calls the skin risk low. Sunrise writes it for mild stability. A seating therapist should confirm that Dartex foam is enough if sitting time is long or sensation is reduced.

• 3 inch (7.6 cm) dual-layer foam
• Dartex-coated Lycra cover, water-resistant zipper
• 330 lb (150 kg) to 500 lb (227 kg) by width

Dual-layer foam and Dartex cover

The JAY GO cushion uses a firm bottom layer for a stable base and a soft top layer for sitting tolerance. Mild contouring adds support without a deep well. The four-way stretch Lycra is coated with Dartex so the surface wipes clean. A water-resistant zipper and anti-wicking thread are how Sunrise keeps fluid off the foam.

It is foam, not JAY Flow fluid. If you need a pressure relief cushion with fluid, look at the JAY Union Cushion or the JAY Fusion with Cryo.

Funding help for a wheelchair cushion or back support in Ontario

This cushion or back support is an ADP positioning device category item. Ontario's Assistive Devices Program (ADP) can fund 75% of the cost of positioning devices such as cushions and back supports when they are prescribed through an assessment by an ADP-registered occupational therapist or physiotherapist with an eligible mobility device, and some income-support programs cover the full cost. Not every product qualifies, so talk to us before you buy. March of Dimes Canada, Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), and community programs can also help. Westin Healthcare's staff work with these programs every week and will point you to the right route for your situation. Visit our funding page or call (905) 451-7743 to talk it through.

Service and warranty

When something on the cushion needs work, you call the shop that set it up, not a US parts desk. Westin Healthcare has a service and repairs department. Our technicians come to the home or workplace.

Sunrise Medical JAY warranty

The JAY GO owner's manual prints 24 months on the cushion and 6 months on the removable cover, for the original purchaser. Punctures, tears, and burns sit outside that term. Sunrise notes that Canadian terms can follow provincial funding rules. We handle the warranty claim with you. Ask us if an extended warranty is offered for your order.
