Stacking pillows at night rarely works, and it can leave you stiff, sore, and unsteady in the morning. In this episode, retired Occupational Therapist, Certified Aging in Place Specialist, and Dementia Care Specialist Esther Kane explains how to choose a bed wedge or positioning aid that actually holds its angle all night. She walks through which wedge suits which problem, covering nighttime reflux, breathing trouble, swollen legs, hip and back pain, and pressure care for someone who can't turn on their own. She also shares a safety issue most shoppers overlook, along with a free way to test whether extra support will help before spending any money at all.
