Our collection of carer support products
Providing support workers with the appropriate tools, resources, and products can make their caregiving responsibilities more manageable and improve the quality of care they provide. With this in mind, we offer a wide range of carer support products, including but not limited to:
Assistive devices & mobility aids:
- Wheelchairs, walkers, and mobility scooters empower support workers by facilitating safe movement, reducing strain during transfers, enhancing their client’s independence, and expanding accessibility in various environments (e.g. around town or home).
- Transfer boards and slide sheets are indispensable tools. Transfer boards bridge gaps between surfaces, allowing safe lateral movement of care recipients. Slide sheets minimise friction, easing transfers between beds, wheelchairs, and more.
- Patient lifting equipment is invaluable for support workers. Ceiling hoists mechanically lift and transfer individuals with limited mobility, sparing support workers from excessive physical strain. Slings, securely attached to hoists, ensure safe and comfortable transfers, enhancing caregivers' abilities and maintaining their client’s safety.
Home modifications:
- Grab bars and ramps enhance accessibility and safety within the home, offering support in areas like bathrooms and staircases where balance and falls are a concern. In contrast, ramps provide easy entry and exit for wheelchair users — portable options are available for trips around town.
- Adjustable beds are versatile sleep systems that provide customisable comfort and support for individuals with varying health needs and mobility. These beds include a mattress supported by a motorised base, allowing users to adjust the position of the head, foot, and sometimes the overall elevation of the bed.
- Shower chairs facilitate support workers in providing safe, comfortable bathing experiences for individuals with mobility challenges or disabilities. These chairs minimise the risk of slips and falls, ensure the client's dignity, and make the bathing process more manageable for the support worker and the individual in their care.
Personal care products:
- Incontinence aids like adult pull-ups and pads ensure hygiene and comfort, easing the cleaning process. This saves time and enhances the well-being of care recipients while reducing the workload for support workers.
Safety & monitoring:
- Alarm and alert systems provide swift assistance during emergencies (e.g. falling out of bed or getting lost), ensuring their client’s safety. Medical alarms prevent individuals from wandering into dangerous areas, allowing support workers to focus on delivering quality care while maintaining a secure environment.
Considering the support workers' and care recipients' specific needs and preferences is important. Involving healthcare professionals or occupational therapists can also help tailor recommendations to the individual's unique situation.
