Question
My mom has a built in lift in her home ( ceiling unit) but is currently limiting her traveling due to not having a lift to take with them. Are there any lifts that are easy to travel with. I want to take them on a cruise and will need a portable unit.
Answer
Dear Mandy,
Thank you for the inquiry, however we do not carry a portable lift. The lifts we have are not stationary, they have castors. Take a look:

Question
I will be needing some sort of cloth to wipe off ultrasound gel from my patients. I was wondering how the premium polytowels or the disposable rayon washcloths would work. Can you please inform me as to which one if any you would recommend? Thank you.Laura
Answer
Dear Laura,
Thank for the inquiry. Since most gels are water based, using a wet towelette and/or washcloth would probably work the best. I would not recommend anything dry, make sure the cloth is damp. It works more effectively. In answer to your question: damp disposable rayon washcloths.

Hi,I am in need of wound care products--plain packing strips (like iodoform without the iodoform), and gauze. Are the strips and gauze that you carry sterile? Also, are the prices online the same as those in your store on 6009 Richmond Ave., Houston TX 77057?Thank you.
