With so many wheelchair options out there, choosing the right one can feel overwhelming — let us simplify the decision by introducing one of our top-rated best sellers: the Atmos Ultra Lite

Crash-tested for safety, with anti-tip wheels and push-to-lock brakes, Atmos offers confidence on the go. Enjoy ergonomic comfort, washable cushions, and smart storage — every detail curated for effortless mobility.

Seeing the equipment we create is powerful—but witnessing the impact it has is truly meaningful.

Every chair carries a story. This one supports a client navigating the daily challenges of a neurodegenerative condition, where maintaining movement, posture, and comfort is an ongoing journey.

AMS worked hard to ensure every detail was tailored to her lifestyle. Glide's Centro 2.0's tilt and elevation functions support long periods of sitting, postural alignment, and access to community and daily activities. Clinically, it enables safe and comfortable positioning despite reduced range of movement in the hips, upper and lower body.

What made this chair truly unique was the personal touch: the client collaborated on the colour scheme and loved the idea of commemorating her beloved family pet by incorporating a tribute into the chair’s design. 🐶

This is why we do what we do. 💚

Whether you’re caring for a family member at home or working in a medical facility like a hospital or aged care centre, it is vitally important to know how to use a hoist correctly.

Patient lifting can be dangerous if not executed right. We know helping a patient into a sling and moving them from point A to B can be complicated -- it can also be physically exhausting for the carer and nerve-wracking for the patient. With this in mind, this article explains how to use a hoist step-by-step, whether you’re using a ceiling hoist, a mobile hoist or a pool hoist 👉 https://bit.ly/43UjMDI

⭐ As we continue another week of the Premmie Marathon Challenge, we’d like to introduce our Service Manager, Anthony Robinson — a long-time runner dedicated to raising funds for Running for Premature Babies. Here’s Anthony’s story:

'What inspired me to take part in the Premmie Marathon Challenge isn’t so much a story about a premature birth (although Lucas did arrive a little earlier than expected), but rather about the incredible neonatal equipment, funded by Running for Premature Babies, that played a life-saving role in my nephew’s start to life.

When Lucas was born he wasn’t breathing. At first, doctors suspected a problem with his lungs, but treatment for that didn’t make much difference to his condition.

He was transferred to Sydney Children’s Hospital that same afternoon, where multiple tests revealed that he had a congenital heart defect requiring urgent surgery.

At just two days old, Lucas underwent lifesaving open-heart surgery to repair the defect. He was connected to countless monitors and machines that helped keep him alive and supported his recovery.

Lucas spent a month in hospital, cared for by the incredible doctors and nurses who guided him through every step of his healing journey. Today, he is a healthy 17-year-old — and our entire family are forever grateful to all the amazing staff, and for the medical equipment that gave him the chance to live the full life he enjoys today.

🏃My goal is to run, walk or cycle ❗420km (equivalent to 10 marathons) ❗during the month of November and to raise funds and awareness to such a worthy cause.'

It’s one thing to see the equipment we build—it’s another to witness the difference it makes.

Behind every chair is a story. This one belongs to a client living with Huntington’s disease, a condition that slowly affects movement, cognition, and mental health.

For her, safety, independence, and future-proofing were essential. That’s why Glide was chosen—durable, adaptable, and trialed extensively to meet her evolving needs.

AMS worked closely to ensure every detail—from seating goals to managing involuntary movements—was tailored to support her life, indoors and out.

This is why we do what we do.💚

We’re excited to have joined the Premmie Marathon Challenge! Here’s the story of Kristina, our Marketing Manager, whose been a long time supporter.

"For the past five years, I have been actively participating in the Premmie Marathon Challenge to raise funds for life-saving neonatal equipment that gives critically ill and premature babies a better chance of survival.

As someone whose child spent the first six weeks of his life in the NICU, I’m passionate about supporting other children and families as they navigate this challenging time.

Running to support these little ones is a meaningful way to make a difference. As part of my Premmie Marathon Challenge, I’ve decided to run the Queenstown Marathon and support Running for Premature Babies Charity in November 2025, adding another 42 km to my challenge.

I’m also pleased that the Active Mobility Team has joined this effort — together, we’re keeping active while raising vital funds for premmies."
