April Newsletter

www.didage.com

It is officially Spring!

It was nice to meet so many of you this week at the AORN in Chicago.  There were more than 5,600 in attendance.

 
The buzz this year was how to survive and thrive in the current economy and going green. 

In this newsletter, you will find information on how refurbished equipment helps you to stay within your budget, how Didage Sales is helping the 'green' initiative, as well as well as a feature on our newest product arrivals.

Below, you will find many of our new arrivals.  Click on the pictures and titles to go directly to our website where you will find more pictures and product specification information.   We have featured our like-new Stryker 1080 Fluoroscopy Stretcher and the Exergen TemporalScanner™, which is an Infrared Thermometer with a manufacturer's lifetime warranty.

Mark your calendars.  Didage Sales, Inc. will be exhibiting at the ASC meeting in Nashville on next month.

 Please let me know if you are interested in pricing on these or any other items.  I can be reached at 574-268-9098 or angie@didage.com.

Going Green

Many of you, like Jamee Hunter of Baylor All Saints Medical Center in of Ft. Worth, Texas, are passionate about doing what you can in the effort to be 'green'.  I appreciate the opportunity to talk to you about our contribution in this effort. 

Why fill our land fills with equipment when we have so many options for re-using it?

Those who trade in, or sell us their surplus equipment, and those who buy it, are doing the responsible thing.  We refurbish and sell most of the equipment domestically.  The equipment which is no longer cutting-edge technology for the USA market, is then sold overseas.  The equipment that is good working order, but has not sold, is usually donated to missions programs.  Last but not least, we sort all of remaining parts and pieces of our non-usable items, and recycle them.

 

Missions Donation: 

 

Didage Sales Company, Inc. has started a philanthropic division, which accepts surplus medical equipment from hospitals and surgery centers, and facilitates getting them into the hands of those who work or volunteer at non-profit agencies.  

 

Several organizations have donated to our philanthropy program, rather than throwing them away.  All donated items are available for the following:  medical practicum, missions groups, emergency relief work, non-profit clinics, shelters, and for use in underprivileged countries. 

So far, donated products have gone to Africa, Ecuador, Nigeria, Mexico, and Bangladesh.

Recycled Paper

In our office, we start by using recycled paper for our fax and copy machines.  Copy-paper that is only used on one side, is run though on the other side, rather than throwing the paper in the trash.  This cuts our paper usage by half!

Recycled Cardboard and Packing Materials

We save our cardboard boxes and packing material from inbound packages, and reuse them. 

Share your 'green' ideas.  I would love to hear them.  Contact me at 574-268-9098 or angie@didage.com
 

Please let me know if you would like a quote on the items featured, or any other equipment, whether it is already budgeted, about to be budgeted, or just on your 'wish list'.   Please reply to this e-mail, or call 574-268-9098.

Sincerely,

Angie Tom,

Director of Marketing
