DME Reuse Program

The Durable Medical Equipment program takes in donations of gently used equipment, sanitizes it, and redistributes it to people in need. The equipment must be beneficial and safe for the person to use. Reuse programs create an opportunity for those who need Assistive Technology to obtain it at low/no cost. An added “green” benefit is keeping usable equipment out of landfills.

These efforts help get useful devices out of attics and garages and into the hands of people with disabilities who need them. Items such as walkers, manual and power wheelchairs, transfer chairs, raised toilet seats, tub seats/benches, reacher tools, and any other equipment that helps with independence may be accepted.

This program is supported in part by Technology for Our Whole Lives (TechOWL). TechOWL is the Commonwealth's Assistive Technology Act Program at the Institute on Disabilities and Temple University. The program is funded through a grant from the Administration on Community Living and the US Department of Health and Human Services.
