Our supportive range of products for decreased mobility
From mobility aids that provide freedom of movement to adaptive home accessories that promote safety and convenience, our goal is to empower Australians with decreased mobility to lead independent lives. With this in mind, we have an extensive collection of products for decreased mobility, including:
Mobility Aids:
-
Wheelchairs: Wheelchairs are essential for those with limited leg mobility or difficulty walking long distances. Manual wheelchairs are propelled by the user or a caregiver, while electric wheelchairs are motorised and operated with a joystick or control panel, offering more independence.
-
Mobility Scooters: Mobility scooters are ideal for outdoor mobility. They are electrically powered and have a comfortable seat, handlebars, and a tiller for steering. They provide a convenient way to move around neighbourhoods, parks, and shopping centres.
-
Walkers & Rollators: Walkers come in various designs, including standard walkers with four legs, wheeled walkers, and rollators with larger wheels and brakes. These devices provide stability and support while walking and can include a seat for resting.
Home Accessibility:
-
Ramps: Ramps are installed at entrances and exits to eliminate obstacles like stairs. They come in various materials, including aluminium and rubber, and can be permanent or portable, making it easier for wheelchair users to access buildings.
-
Grab Bars: Grab bars are installed in bathrooms, near toilets, and in showers to help individuals maintain balance and provide support when getting up and down.
Bathroom Aids:
-
Shower Chairs & Transfer Benches: These aids allow individuals to sit while showering, reducing the risk of slips and falls. Transfer benches facilitate moving in and out of the bathtub or shower.
-
Raised Toilet Seats: Raised toilet seats increase the height of the toilet, making it easier for individuals to sit down and stand up. Some models come with arms for added stability.
Bedroom Aids:
-
Adjustable Beds: Adjustable beds can be raised or lowered at the head and foot to help individuals find a comfortable sleeping position and facilitate getting in and out of bed.
-
Bed Rails: Bed rails provide support and help prevent falls during sleep. They can be attached to the bed frame or placed under the mattress.
-
Overbed Tables: Overbed tables are adjustable tables that can be positioned over the bed to provide a convenient surface for eating, reading, or using a laptop.
Kitchen Aids:
-
Adaptive Utensils: These utensils have special grips or designs to make them easier to hold for individuals with limited hand dexterity or strength.
-
Easy Reachers: Reachers have a long handle and a grasping mechanism that allows individuals to reach items on high shelves or the floor without bending over.
Personal Care Aids:
-
Dressing Aids: These tools, like button hooks or zipper pulls, assist individuals in fastening buttons and zippers, making dressing easier.
-
Long-Handled Shoehorns: Long-handled shoehorns allow individuals to put on shoes without bending down, which can be especially helpful for people with limited flexibility.
It's crucial to consider the specific needs of the individual and consult with healthcare professionals or occupational therapists to determine the most suitable products and adaptations for their situation.
At Active Mobility, we have occupational therapists who can provide tailored advice and product recommendations based on your mobility needs. Contact us for more information, or book a showroom appointment online to see our product range and OTs in person.
