About Phoenix Healthcare Group

“A mythical bird that never dies, the phoenix flies far ahead to the front, always scanning the landscape and distant space. It represents our capacity for vision, for collecting sensory information about our environment and the events unfolding within it. The phoenix, with its great beauty, creates intense excitement and deathless inspiration.” ~ Lam Kam Chuen

Phoenix Healthcare’s history epitomises the mythical spirit of the Phoenix, having faced many changes and challenges over the past 20 years, but always rising to the forefront of the health and aged care industry. Proprietors John Blinco and Gillian Howard have demonstrated inspiring vision year after year, by not only stocking, but designing innovative products to suit customer needs. Their designs are based on extensive industry understanding and research. The company continues to ensure service above and beyond any other national or international competitors, and has built a reputation on experience and respect.

The organisation has come a long way since the fledgling Calvary Pharmacy which made the original difficult decision on whether to have “one wheelchair or two” when it entered the home healthcare and mobility market in the mid 1990s. The uniquely designed Phoenix Healthcare complex in Cairns relocated to the corner of Lake and Upward Streets in 2000, followed by the 2006 addition of the 650sq.m Condor Healthcare showroom in Townsville, the extensive new maintenance and development unit on Water Street (Cairns, 2009), and the new interactive Martyn Street Showroom (corner Grove Street) which opened its doors in February 2010.

Phoenix Healthcare Group boasts over 1500sq.m. of retail showrooms in North Queensland, and efficiently reaches far beyond Cairns and Townsville city limits via a network of online operations, home delivery and installation, and Government agencies.

All stores are well located and provide ample parking, easy access and plenty of room to browse and trial equipment and aids. Generally necessity brings customers into the shops, but the décor and obliging attitude of the staff is such that many return having enjoyed their first experience realising that the Phoenix Healthcare Group offers much more than ‘just wheelchairs’. Here you’ll discover unimagined healthcare and mobility options for each individual – from a child with a broken arm, an athlete recovering from injury, patient undergoing surgery rehabilitation or someone simply in need of advice.

The dedicated management and staff of Phoenix Healthcare Group are in the business of caring. They not only aim to provide the utmost in range for sale and hire, but the development arm is consistently designing its own products based on years of experience and understanding of exactly what is needed, but not currently available in the healthcare and mobility marketplace. Bennu and Silverbridge, two brands recently established by Phoenix Healthcare Group, are synonymous with good quality and affordability. Advanced products have been brought to market bearing the Bennu and Silverbridge trademarks and the production of imported merchandise is closely supervised.

Similarly, these innovations are carefully trialled and developed to the highest national and international standards, and resources from Australia, China and Taiwan are pooled so that customers are ensured the utmost in contemporary quality and design.

Phoenix Healthcare Group imports and manufacturers, ensuring not only the utmost in quality and design, but the very best price on the market.
