I wouldn't be RELUCTANT to send someone needing such assistance off without such measures... I just wouldn't.
I don't think it was suggested that it should. I think it's helpful for the OP to know exactly what is and what isn't provided, so she can plan accordingly.
The
appropriate Qantas page is quite good at explaining what assistance is available, including what assistance can be provided onboard.
