Fall Prevention

Fall Prevention Equipment Australia

Safety and Mobility supplies a range of fall prevention products for hospitals, aged care facilities, and home care settings across Australia. Falls are the leading cause of injury-related hospitalisation for older Australians, and an effective falls prevention strategy requires a combination of environmental modifications, assistive equipment, and monitoring solutions tailored to each individual's risk profile.

Our fall prevention range includes SafeHip AirX hip protector pants with sewn-in shields to reduce hip fracture risk, non-slip socks for safe indoor mobility, pull-string bed monitors that raise an alarm when a patient leaves their bed or chair, and a range of supplementary fall prevention accessories. As a registered NDIS provider, Safety and Mobility can supply fall prevention equipment to eligible NDIS participants.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does a pull-string bed monitor work?
A pull-string bed monitor clips to the patient's clothing via a short cord. When the patient moves out of their bed or chair, the cord detaches and triggers an alarm, alerting staff before the patient attempts to stand unassisted. It is used as part of a supervised fall prevention program.
