I bought a waterproof fabric covered " pad " with ties on each corner that I could fasten over my ROHO cushion on my wheelchair but cannot find one on the internet and can't recall where I got it. I also found an about 18x18 inch waterproof pad that I put grommets in each corner and used shoelaces to tie it over the cushion. I already know about and have the ROHO cover on the cushion that the rubber cushion fit into so that is not what I want. I also dont want one that is thick and designed to store water. I simply want one that will keep an " accident " from leaking into the ROHO cushion and its protective cover.
I had an " accident " and we simply untied the cover, washed it, dried it and tied it back on. Didn't have to do anything to the ROHO cushion or its cover because nothing came through the protective cover. I' m amazed that someone in the wheelchair business doesn't offer such a product. I did an Internet search and did find some covers wih an absorbent layer to soak up liquid but that isn't needed, makes the cover thicker and probably will be harder to use for someone like me who has to slide on and off the chair because of low leg strength. Anything from about 17x17 to 20x20 inches or so would work. I want the fabric layer on the protective cover as sometimes I have to slide on with a bare bottom after a bath for example. I also don't want plastic because I don't think it wouild facilitate sliding and would not stand up as well with daily use. I would prefer a smooth fabric layer on top with a vinyl/plastic layer on the bottom and a tie string on each corner or I could put my own tie strings on as I have a kit to install grommets. I use paper underwear and part of the time have to slide on the chair with just the underwear on or slide with shorts on over the underwear. I bought one like this but can't remember where I got it. I also found an 18x18 inch protective cover with smooth fabric on top and a waterproof layer on the bottom, which I modified with the grommets I mentioned (little brass rings with a hole in the center) but we can't recall where we got that either. It makes life a lot easier when you have an unplanned " event ".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
