An alternating pressure mattress does mechanically what a care team cannot do at 3am: it moves the load. Air cells inflate and deflate in cycles so no patch of skin carries weight for long, which is the core of managing serious pressure injury risk in bed.
We stock the Aspire Active Air 5 overlay at $2,699, the Active Air 8 full mattress replacement at $3,539, the Care Quip alternating system and the PressureGuard APM2. Overlay versus replacement is the first decision; risk stage and weight decide the rest.
These are always quoted NDIS assistive technology items, usually with an OT or wound nurse involved, and we return quotes the same day they arrive. If you are staring at a hospital discharge letter that says "pressure area care" and wondering what to do next, call 1300 216 888. Our pharmacists will translate it into an exact setup, including the bedding protection that works with airflow surfaces rather than against them.
