What's in the pack — and why
Every item in this pack is something occupational therapists consistently recommend for hip replacement discharge. Nothing is padding. Here's what each one does.
4-Wheel Rollator with Seat
Hip surgery leaves you fatigued and unstable on your feet for the first few weeks. A front-wheel walker has no seat — which means every time you need to rest, you need to find a chair. The 4-wheel rollator rolls smoothly so you don't have to lift and place each step, and the padded seat means you can stop and rest wherever you are. The built-in storage pouch means you can carry things between rooms without using your hands — which you can't do while holding a walking aid.

Shower Chair with Arms & Back
Standing on a wet shower floor after hip surgery is one of the most common causes of post-surgical falls. Your balance and strength aren't back yet, and the bathroom is where most incidents happen. The shower chair with arms and back gives you a fixed, stable seat to shower from. The arms mean you can lower yourself in and push yourself back up — the two moments where most people feel most uncertain.

Over Toilet Aid with Padded Seat
The toilet is the highest-risk transfer after hip replacement. Standard toilet height requires significant hip flexion to sit and stand — exactly what hip precautions are designed to avoid. The over-toilet aid raises the seat height and provides solid arm rails on both sides, so you can lower yourself down slowly and push straight back up. Your OT will likely ask about this one at your hospital discharge assessment.

Long Reach Grabber — 80cm
Hip precautions after posterior hip replacement mean no bending past 90 degrees — for up to 12 weeks. The reacher means you can pick things up off the floor, pull clothes on, open doors, and manage your environment without bending at all. Most people are surprised how often they would have bent down without realising it. The reacher makes the precautions liveable.

When to order — and what to set up first
Had an anterior approach hip replacement?
Some surgeons use an anterior approach, which typically means fewer movement restrictions — some patients can sit at standard toilet height and don't need the raised seat. Check with your surgeon or OT before ordering. If you're not sure which approach was used, this pack is still the safer choice.
This pack is designed for hip surgery
Knee replacement recovery needs a different set of items — the rollator and shower chair still apply, but the toilet aid is less critical and you'll benefit more from cold therapy and leg elevation support.
