Negril Ambulance/EMS needs supplies
Bulk gauze
Trauma dressing
Gloves (Large or XL)
Sphygmomanometer ( for checking Blood Pressure) and Stethoscope
Portable suction machine
Surgical blade
Betadine solution
Medical scissors
Tape
Obstetric kit
Thermometer

These items are in very short supply or depleted right now. Any donations will help improve the quality of services provided by Negril’s EMS.
If you have access to any of these items, please consider bringing them to Gail at the Tree House Resort when you visit. Items from the list that are beyond their expiration date are OK as long as the packaging is intact and not soiled.
If you have access to more supplies than you can carry in your luggage, contact me and I can help get the supplies to Negril.

Re: Negril Ambulance/EMS needs supplies
Great to hear.
I'm concentrating on the more obscure things, like the Obstetric Kit.
Re: Negril Ambulance/EMS needs supplies
I will remember to bring supplies with me next reach....unfortunately that won't be until next year....good news is that I am a nurse and can get my company to donate most of these needed items.
Re: Negril Ambulance/EMS needs supplies
I am working on getting the supplies for you and will be there on 7/13. I sent you a message.
