TROY, Mich. (March 3, 2016)—Health care professionals and family caregivers now have a new, convenient source they can trust for high-quality patient transfer tools and body protection products. ICS Medical Supply, an online retailer and the exclusive east coast U.S. distributor for Medicare System, has officially launched at icsmedicalsupply.com. The medical device reseller is committed to 100 percent satisfaction by fulfilling customer expectations for superior caregiving products at a good value, while delivering outstanding, personalized service.

Among the innovative transfer product offerings are the Medi-Glide Board, designed to transfer patients from a bed to a wheelchair or chair and back; the foldable Medi-Roller Board, used for transfers between two flat surfaces such as from a stretcher to a bed; the Medi-Slide, which facilitates changing the posture of seated patients to prevent them from sliding into a poor position; and the Patient Transfer Turntable, which is often used with Medicare System’s proprietary Auxiliary Leg Band and padded Gait Belt for added safety, comfort and stability. ICS Medical Supply also sells a variety of Slide Sheets and Transfer Sheets including a disposable version with handles.  

Body protection products include the Salvaclip Comfort Belt, which safely secures a patient in a wheelchair to prevent them from sliding down or falling forward; Heel & Elbow Protectors to prevent bed sores; and Knee and Shoulder Immobilizers, for use with minor injuries as well as for post-surgical applications.

“We founded ICS Medical Supply based on the need to find patient transfer tools to assist the caregivers who work for our in-home care agency, Golden Heart Senior Care—Rochester Hills,” said John Pas, CEO of ICS Medical Supply. “We eventually came across an interesting group of products manufactured by Medicare Systems in Barcelona, Spain. After testing the quality of the items, we became the east coast U.S. distributor.”

Medicare System was founded in 1994 as a manufacturing company of health care products, with self-acquired technology and know-how. The company now serves customers on four continents and all products are entirely manufactured or checked in Medicare System facilities, which are equipped with the most technologically advanced production machinery, enabling the company to respond to each market’s differing needs.
