Falls Protection
Falls Protection Products That Reduce the Risk of Injury
Concerned about injuries from falls at home or in care?
When a fall does occur, having the right falls protection products in place can drastically reduce the risk of serious injury. At Bettercaremarket, we offer a curated range of impact-reducing aids such as hip protectors, padded fall mats, and wearable fall sensors to ensure a safer environment for seniors, people with disabilities, and those living with dementia.
What are the best ways to reduce injury when falls happen?
Falls can’t always be avoided — but injuries from them can. Our range includes wearable hip protectors that absorb impact during a fall and help prevent hip fractures, one of the most common and severe outcomes. These discreet garments are worn like undergarments and are a must-have for frail or high-risk individuals in both residential and clinical settings.
Need added protection near beds or wheelchairs?
Bedside fall mats and crash mats provide a cushioned landing area in case of a fall from bed, chair, or transfer. Made from high-density foam, they reduce the severity of injury and are ideal for users who are at risk of rolling out of bed, or who frequently attempt unsupervised transfers. Look for models with bevelled edges and anti-slip backing for extra safety.
Looking for discreet, wearable protection?
Our hip protection briefs and hip protector belt are ideal for those who prefer minimal visibility. Designed for day-long wear under clothing, they offer comfortable protection while remaining breathable and machine washable. These are popular in aged care settings and with independent users who want to stay mobile without sacrificing safety.
Can these be combined with fall alert systems?
Yes — our falls protection products work best when used alongside fall alert systems and bed alarms. By pairing wearable protection with monitoring tools, carers can reduce the risk of injury and respond faster in an emergency. This dual approach is recommended for high-risk patients or dementia care environments.
Are these products NDIS-approved?
Many of our falls protection items are NDIS-approved and meet assistive technology funding requirements. Whether you're a participant, carer, or support coordinator, our team can help you source the right protection gear for your client's individual needs. We also provide formal quotes and documentation to support plan applications.
What if I’m caring for someone with dementia or unpredictable movement?
In cases where balance or cognition is impaired, it's crucial to combine environmental safety with personal protection. Our children head protector cap, bed safety pole, and pathway night lights create a safer environment for wandering or nighttime activity, giving carers added peace of mind.
