New supplier – emergency oxygen
The emergency oxygen package from Baywater Healthcare has been created to deliver immediate assistance and give you peace of mind in case of an emergency. It is designed to provide a high flow of oxygen for use during resuscitation and to quickly and easily direct the user how to administer lifesaving oxygen until help arrives.
Included in the emergency oxygen package:
- Portable medical oxygen cylinder with integral valve
- Adult non-rebreathe mask
- Tubing
- Delivery
You can rent the larger B10 cylinder which will last five times longer than the smaller Freedom 400 to allow extra oxygen in an emergency and to save money on frequency of cylinder refills for the same price. Click on the highlighted link to read a product flyer.
