Skipped working this morning’s breakfast and worked through the backlog of recently donated medical equipment. Returned three Rollators, four walkers, a hemi-walker, two adjustable canes, and a shower chair to the locker. We scrapped three walkers.
NOTE: we still have outstanding needs for two hospital beds and a lift chair. If you or someone you know have available items they’d like to donate, please contact Pat at the number below.

Here’s how our Medical Equipment Loan Program works:
- Equipment is for anyone; you need not be a Veteran.
- NEW: we do not work on personal property; only equipment that has been donated to the program. If you give us something that needs repairs, do not then ask that we return it to you.
- Keep it for as long as you need it.
- It’s free at no cost whatsoever.
- Donations to the Med Equip Loan Program are not required, but always appreciated; used to purchase replacement parts, etc. Make checks out to Mary L. Bair Post 44, American Legion, w/‘Medical Equip‘ in the notation.
- When no longer needed, please consider donating the equipment back to us so we can give it a maintenance check and a good cleaning, and get it ready for someone else to use.
- We loan the equipment on a first come, first served basis. No reservations, please.
- If you need something we don’t have, don’t hesitate to contact us anyway. We’ll put it out on social media and see what we can do.
