The new location aims to improve access to medical equipment for regional healthcare facilities.
Hospitals in Colorado and the surrounding region will now have quicker access to critical medical equipment following the opening of a new US Med-Equip (USME) branch in Colorado Springs.
The expansion is intended to help healthcare providers better manage fluctuating patient demand with around-the-clock access to rented ventilators, infusion pumps, patient monitors, specialty beds, and other essential medical equipment. With a local presence, USME can deliver, service, and pick up equipment faster, helping hospitals care for patients without the high costs of owning equipment used only occasionally, according to a release from the company.
“Hospitals face increasing pressure to provide the best patient care possible while controlling costs,” says Greg Salario, CEO of USME. “By opening this branch in Colorado Springs, we’re putting critical medical equipment closer to the healthcare heroes in this region who rely on it to comfort and heal their patients, cutting equipment delivery time and operating costs.”
USME provides rental, sales, service, and asset management of medical equipment to hospitals across the country. Its technology platform enables healthcare teams to track and manage devices in real time, with support from a 24/7 service team.
The Colorado Springs location is part of USME’s ongoing growth in the western United States. The company is currently hiring for positions in the area and nationwide.
