Coastcare Medical Equipment Hire & Sales specialises in the supply of a range of products for hospitals and rehabilitation clinics in Australia. Pressure care products supplied by the company include water gel cushions, silicone fibre cushions, diffuser memory foam cushions, convoluted cushions, posture wedges, keyhole cushions, lumbar rolls and inflatable ring cushions. Pressure care products are designed for use in critical care, rehabilitation care or aged care environments to prevent, reduce and relieve pressure ulcers on patients caused by long periods of immobility. Water gel cushions contain a mix of water and gel in a soft vinyl cover. These pressure care products provide comfort to the user by distributing the pressure and reducing risk of skin shear or pressure ulcers.
Silicore wheelchair cushions are pressure care cushions filled with silicone fibre to provide superior pressure relief and reduction of shear force. These cushions have a cotton surface on one side and waterproof surface on the other. Diffuser memory foam cushions are supplied with an incontinence cover and are designed to disperse pressure as well as spread the load on the chair. Designed for use on wheelchairs, these pressure care products offer benefits such as secure comfort, enhanced posture and a polyurethane cover that resists moisture and can be cleaned very easily.
