Managing incontinence or caring for someone who does can feel overwhelming. But with the right products, daily life becomes a lot easier. Mediply Plus, a trusted medical supply store based in Sydney, offers a wide range of mattress and bed protection products — including popular Bluey Pads — to help families and carers stay prepared every day.
What Are Bluey Pads and Why Do People Use Them?
Bluey Pads are disposable absorbent underpads commonly used in aged care, disability support, and home care settings. They sit on top of a mattress or chair to absorb moisture and protect surfaces.
People use them for:
- Managing urinary or bowel incontinence
- Post-surgery or hospital recovery at home
- Protecting beds during illness or injury
- Supporting elderly family members or NDIS participants
They are easy to use, hygienic, and disposable — which means no extra laundry and less stress for carers.
Everyday Uses of Bluey Mats at Home and in Care Settings
Bluey Mats are not just for hospitals. Many families across Sydney use them daily in a range of situations.
At Home
Whether it is an elderly parent, a child with bedwetting issues, or someone recovering from surgery, Bluey Mats offer a simple layer of protection. Place one under the patient and change it as needed throughout the day.
In Aged Care and Disability Support
Carers working in aged care facilities or providing NDIS support rely on disposable mats to maintain hygiene standards. They are quick to change, reduce the risk of skin irritation, and make the job more manageable.
Postoperative Care
After certain medical procedures, patients often need extra protection during recovery. Absorbent mats help keep the bed clean and the patient comfortable.
What Mediply Plus Offers in This Category
Mediply Plus stocks a solid range of bed and mattress protection products suited for different needs and budgets. Their collection includes:

How to Choose the Right Product for Your Needs
Not every product works for every situation. Here are a few things to consider:
- Absorbency level — light, moderate, or heavy, depending on the individual’s needs
- Size — single, double, queen, or king bed sizes are available
- Reusable vs disposable — disposable options like Bluey Pads are convenient; reusable ones save money over time
- Skin sensitivity — look for soft-surface pads that reduce irritation
