Compounding
Websterpaks (Weekly Medicines Pack)
We offer a full compounding service to prepare specialised tailored medicines and products that are not available in 'pre-made' or 'proprietary' forms. These might be specially made products like creams, pessaries or suspensions in a specific dose.
If you or a loved one are taking multiple medications and are concerned with getting it all right we can help. A Webster-pak organises all of your weekly medicine doses into one pack. It organises your doses for each day and time of day and takes the stress out of managing complex medication regimens.
Medical Equipment Hire & Sales
Our store offers an excellent range of hire equipment aimed at mobility and home help, depending on your needs. We also have Hospital Grade Medela Breast Pumps available for hire. Crutches (in different styles and different heights), wheelchairs, walkers, shower chairs, and over-toilet chairs are some of the products we have available. Our expert team members can track down items for you if we don’t have them in stock.
