Supplementary kits include additional tools and supplies for specific roles in emergency situations
ST. LOUIS—Med Sled®, a leading supplier of cost-effective evacuation solutions to the healthcare and education industries, announces the release of its new line of Evacuation Kits. The kits are designed to provide basic, yet essential, tools for specific roles identified during emergencies, including Unit Captain, Staff, Stairwell and Patient, ensuring safe and timely evacuations. In addition, the Med Sled® Evacuation Kits are customizable, offering the right tools at the right time.
“We have learned many lessons through catastrophic events and have been challenged by our customers to develop customized kits that align with and support their evacuation protocols,” said Clifford Adkins, CEO of Med Sled®. “Our new Evacuation Kits are accessible, affordable, easy to maintain, and will improve the speed and dramatically improve the safety of the evacuation for patients, students, staff and guests.”
Med Sled® Evacuation Kits come in rolling duffle bags, hands-free fanny packs and drawstring bags that are easily deployed and maintained. They are fully customizable to meet the needs of specific facilities, and are an affordable option by providing each key role with exactly what they need during emergency evacuations or disasters.
“After helping evacuate victims using the Med Sled® from disasters including the Joplin EF5 Tornado, and Hurricane Sandy, we’ve realized that having simple yet necessary tools can make the difference between life and death,” said Adkins. “With these kits we are making our best effort at placing those life-saving tools, from simple headlamps and facemasks to room clear signs and bullhorns, in the hands of those who need them the most.”
