The gold standard in advanced pressure injury prevention and wound healing

The DolphinCare™ Integrated Bed System represents the highest level of care available for patients at risk of serious pressure injuries or recovering from complex wounds. Originally developed from technology used by the U.S. Navy and now trusted in leading hospitals and specialty care settings, DolphinCare is widely regarded as the gold standard for advanced pressure redistribution therapy.

Unlike traditional hospital beds or therapy mattresses, DolphinCare is engineered as one fully integrated system. The bed frame, therapy surface, and control unit are designed to work together continuously, delivering a level of protection, stability, and adaptability that other systems simply cannot match.

Fluid Immersion Simulation® (FIS): how the therapy works

At the heart of DolphinCare is Fluid Immersion Simulation® (FIS) therapy, which supports the body as if floating in fluid. This approach removes harmful pressure points, minimizes tissue distortion, and helps maintain near-normal blood flow to the skin, critical factors in preventing pressure injuries and supporting healing, even in the most fragile patients.

An intelligent control system automatically adapts support as the patient moves or changes position, maintaining an individualized immersion profile at all times. There are no preset cycles, no manual adjustments, and no guesswork just continuous, responsive therapy working in the background.

Full-surface therapy with added stability

DolphinCare delivers Fluid Immersion Simulation therapy across the entire sleep surface, helping limit pressure gradients at the edges of the bed. The optional 42″ UltraWide configuration reduces fall risk by up to 37% compared to standard 35″ beds, while providing additional stability and caregiver access. 

What’s included with the DolphinCare Integrated Bed System

Each system is delivered as a complete, validated unit, including:

• Joerns UltraCare® XT bed frame

• DolphinCare Fluid Immersion Simulation® mattress 80"L x 35" W or 80"L x 42" W (10″)

• Integrated DolphinCare control unit

• UltraLock® stability system at head and foot

• Advanced staff controls
