Oxygen concentrators | Portable ultrasounds



            I was expecting my first child, but I had a lot of medical issues personally. It probably was unwise to have a child at all, but we were so desperate to love and help nurture someone. We tried our best, honestly, not to have a kid, but then it just happened. It was bittersweet because I knew it’d be a long pregnancy.
            My primary care doctor advised that I get my own portable ultrasound to keep an eye on things from home, as well as to come into his office and get ultrasounds. Toward the end of my pregnancy, I began having very bad hypertension and needed to use an oxygen concentrator to help things smooth out. For the portable ultrasound, I had gone to MedicalDepartment Store and found exactly what I needed for not too expensive. It eased a lot of fears I had because I was able to use that portable ultrasound anywhere, whenever I felt freaked out that something was wrong. Don’t ask for details. 


But really, I used it a lot. And the oxygen concentrator allowed me the peace of breathing and giving my baby all of the oxygen concentrated wonderfully strong for him before he was even born. Really, Medical DepartmentStore saved my child and my life. I probably would have died during childbirth or else lost my baby had I not used the oxygen concentrator as I was in labor, and had I not used the portable ultrasound to monitor things myself between doctor’s appointments. 

Hospital beds | Oxygen concentrators



            
My mom had a stroke last year. I was terrified and lost, honestly. She almost lost her life. This is hard to talk about because it brings back such a dark time. She’s doing so much better now, but she spent the larger portion of last year in a hospital bed, using an oxygen concentrator.
            I didn’t know where to turn first after my mom was left in my care at home. People from the hospital told me what to do, what to get in order to care for her. They gave me a few resources to check for equipment. I called a few places but was dissatisfied with the fact that they seemed to not know what they were talking about. Medical Department Store, however, knew exactly which hospital bed would be appropriate for my mom’s situation and optimal improvement. 

They knew just which oxygen concentrator to get, so that I didn’t spend money and time buying one oxygen concentrator before I realized in frustration that I should have gotten a different oxygen concentrator. It was all very dizzying to me until I talked to a Medical Department Store representative. He knew how to comfort me and how to use the hospital bed I just purchased for my home, for my mom. I felt so at ease and it really helped me get through the whole ordeal. Now that my mom is off of the hospital bed, I still go to Medical DepartmentStore for other medical needs she has. They have everything!
