About this product

Quick answer: This is the genuine ResMed homecare stand for the Astral ventilator (part 279001) — a portable rolling stand that keeps the device secure, mobile, and within reach around the home. It features a low centre of gravity for stability, a built-in handle, a storage basket for accessories, cable hooks, and a bracket for the power supply unit. Please confirm whether the top plate is included — the Astral mounts to the stand via a top plate, which is supplied separately in some configurations.

What's included

  • 1 × ResMed Astral homecare stand (part 279001)

Please confirm against your packaging/invoice: whether the Astral top plate and stand interface are included. If not, you'll also need the top plate kit with interface (27956) or the plate only (27961) to mount the device.

The Astral device is not included.

About this stand

The homecare stand is designed for situations where the ventilator needs to move with the patient rather than sit in one place. The rolling base has a low centre of gravity for stability, and a built-in handle makes it easy to move from room to room. An integrated storage basket keeps supplies and accessories within reach, cable hooks stop cables tangling underfoot, and a dedicated bracket secures the power supply unit against knocks and spills.

Raising the device off the floor or a table also improves the viewing angle for the screen and reduces the bending and reaching that caregivers otherwise do many times a day.

Frequently asked questions

What's included? The homecare stand. Please confirm against the packaging whether the top plate and interface are included — in some configurations they're supplied separately.

Do I need anything else to mount my Astral? The Astral attaches via a top plate. If your stand doesn't include one, you'll need the top plate kit with interface (27956) or the plate only (27961).

Is this the rolling stand or the table stand? This is the rolling homecare stand. The tabletop version is part 27915.

Which device does it fit? The ResMed Astral series.

Do I need a prescription? No — equipment stands do not require a prescription.

Can I get it delivered in Brooklyn or shipped nationwide? Yes — Task Supply Corp offers local pickup and delivery in Brooklyn and across NYC. Because this is a bulky item, shipping options may vary — contact us at (718) 735-3400 and we'll confirm delivery for your address.

Use with your ResMed Astral according to the device's user guide. Lock the wheels before use and ensure the device is properly secured to the mounting plate.
