Hi all,
Looking at getting new disabled items such as toilets, rails, shower etc for injured family member.
Where can i source items that are of quality prefer to some standards but are cheaper? Need these items for gramps as due to age.
Primarily after toilet/shower/railings/handles all those kind of items.
Any help be appreciated
I have used these folk for medical supplies - not the type of thing you're looking for so I don't know how they are on prices for those. I find them very helpful in explaining the different products and options over the phone too.
They are based in Petrh so you'd need to factor in P&P.
Try your local council… They might be able to help, they sometimes have grants.
As others have said try gumtree etc and if you are handy with a drill you can install them yourself.
You can sometimes buy/rent off the hospital.
When my dad became disabled we got in touch with aged care services/ occupational therapist at our local hospital. They helped us organise all the home modifications, railings, shower chairs, walkers etc. Maybe you can try your local hospital for assistance.
I agree, go through care services/ occupational therapist at our local hospital. They have the contacts and forms/referrals.
Local council will also have help as well.
Thanks all for the info!
I've used these guys - ilsau.com.au - and they've been amazing. Huge range of items, you can either hire or buy, next day delivery, great service.
Good luck!
Your local sale sites, gumtree, all classifieds etc have them often as the oldies don't need them for that long.
