Aged care equipment in Campsie
Campsie is home to Canterbury Hospital, and a hospital stay is often the point when a family starts looking for aged care equipment in Campsie. Allcare Warehouse delivers across Sydney, and our Croydon Park store at 44 Georges River Rd is just to the north. We sell walking frames, shower and toilet aids, pressure care cushions and beds for recovery at home. Call 1300 767 777 as soon as you know the discharge date.
Preparing to come home from Canterbury Hospital
Before someone leaves hospital, the team caring for them works out what they will need at home. Healthdirect explains that discharge planning can include equipment to help you recover, and should make sure the support you need is in place before you go home.
That is where a supplier of aged care equipment in Campsie comes in. If the ward, an occupational therapist or a physiotherapist gives you a list, call us with it and we will tell you which items we have.
Aged care equipment for the first weeks home in Campsie
The items that often help straight after a hospital stay are the ones that make moving, washing and using the toilet safer:
- a walking frame or rollator from our walking aids, set to the right handle height
- a shower chair so the person can sit to wash
- a raised toilet seat or over-toilet frame to reduce bending
- a pressure care cushion for anyone spending long hours in a chair

Frequently asked questions
The hospital gave us a list of equipment. What do we do?
Call 1300 767 777 with the list and any discharge date the hospital has given you, so delivery can be planned around it. If any part is being funded through aged care or the NDIS, mention that at the start.
How soon should we order?
As early as you can, ideally as soon as a discharge date is set. That leaves time to compare options and arrange delivery of aged care equipment in Campsie before the person arrives home, rather than sorting it out in the first difficult days.
Who decides what equipment is needed after hospital?
The hospital team, usually an occupational therapist or physiotherapist, or the person's GP. Allcare does not assess needs, so we rely on their advice. If no one has recommended anything yet, ask the ward before discharge.
Can NDIS or aged care funding cover recovery equipment?
It can, depending on the person's plan or assessed needs. Allcare is a registered NDIS provider, but funding decisions sit with the NDIA or the aged care program, not with us. Our guide to NDIS funding for equipment explains the steps.
