MASS Warehouse and Stock

Due to equipment availability and staffing constraints, the MASS stocklists and reallocation program of stock items from the Brisbane warehouse is temporarily on hold.

Static Bathing and Toileting Aids (BTA)

MASS Equipment Services has completed their trial of static shower chair/stools and over toilet frames.  During the trial, MASS provided over 1,000 items to clients, highlighting the need for access to these static and less complex bathing and toileting aids for consumers.


MASS Stock and Warehouse Access

Access to MASS stock for trial and allocation for eligible clients is currently limited to applicants for urgent Hospital discharge (including TCP, PACS), other urgent circumstances on consultation with MASS or where the item/s required by the applicant will result in a large copayment. The warehouse remains closed to visitors.
