Get What You Need, Faster, at promedsupply.com

We've made it easier than ever to find the equipment and supplies you need on promedsupply.com!

The Products section of the site is now divided into two distinct sections, Featured Product Categories and Equipment and Furniture Solutions. These sections provide you with one-click access to commonly purchased product categories. For example, in the Featured Product Categories section, you'll find popular categories including incontinence management, gloves and skin care. We've also added more standardized categories to the Equipment and Furniture Solutions section for ease of navigation. We will continue to add to these categories based on our customers’ evolving needs.

While we've made changes, rest assured that we've kept the features that you know and love, including the complete listing of the supplies and equipment categories on the left-hand side of the Products home page that allows you to quickly drill down to the exact product you need. When you click on a category, you can further sort products by subcategory and brand on the next page.

Returning to a product page that you viewed previously is now a more seamless process. Near the top of each product page, underneath the "Online Catalog" logo, you'll see track-back links to the pages that you viewed previously. This function also works with search results.

Last but not least, if you're logged in to the site, you're now able to add products to your cart directly from the Featured Product Categories and Equipment and Furniture Solutions pages!

We would love to hear your feedback on the new design as well as how we can continue to make the site even better. You can email us your thoughts or post them on our Facebook wall.
Does Your Facility Have a Sun Safety Plan?
Now that warmer weather has arrived, it's tempting to just get outside and enjoy the sunshine. Before you do, however, make sure that your facility has a guideline for sun safety to protect residents from the harmful rays.

We recommend taking the following steps:
  1. Ask the residents' families to purchase sunscreen, sunglasses, water bottles and hats for their loved ones to use during the warmer months. Ensure that the residents' names are written on the items.
  2. Encourage residents to wear lightweight pants and long-sleeved shirts to protect them from the sun's rays.
  3. Medications and some medical treatments can make residents more susceptible to sunburns. The nursing department should make a list of all sun-sensitive residents.
  4. Residents should be encouraged to come indoors periodically to cool off and prevent sunburn.
Once you have a sun safety plan in place, get outside and enjoy the weather!
