Replacing medical bag supples

[becoll]

Does anybody know where I can order replacement single medical supplies for my med bag? I'm pretty good about keeping up with my items, it's when I let others borrow them, I learned my lesson, this semester, use your own!! Well, I need things like Medline Dressing tray, Basic enema bag, Foley catheterization tray, etc. Thank you for your help!

Is there a medical supply store in your town, where people who have home health needs can buy these items? If you know anyone who works in home health in your area, they may know of one if you don't.

Or just look in your phone book under Medical Supplies :)

Some of those items require a physician order (foley kit) you may need to get a letter from your school. Just lookup surgical supply stores. Walgreens often sells what can be done over the counter in store.

If all else fails you can order from Pocket Nurse. Some of their stuff runs on the pricey side, but they have a pretty good array of items.

ETA: I don't believe they require a script for any of their products. It is quite clearly stated everywhere on their site that their products are for educational purposes only.

For a site like that yes, they obtain special labeling. But to purchase a foley kit from a surgical supply store an order is needed. Shouldn't need one for dressing kits or enema bag/kit. But if you need anything other than oral syringes (regular syringes, IV cannulate, IV tubing or solutions) you need either a site like above or physician order to obtain.
