RCIL’s Durable Medical Equipment Program

Posted May 26, 2022 by Beth in ,

As a service to the community, RCIL has durable medical equipment available for loan, free of charge, through the Anita Casey Equipment Loan Program in Osage City and the Phyllis Patteson Equipment Loan Program in El Dorado.  RCIL also has the Equipment Loan Program in Emporia.  The equipment is provided as a service not only to our consumers, but also to any member of the community who is experiencing a short-term or long-term disability due to illness, injury, or rehabilitation after surgery.  Items available include, but are not limited to: wheelchairs, bath benches, transfer benches, walker, and canes.

RCIL accepts monetary donations and gently used equipment for the program inventory.  If you would like to make a contribution, please contact RCIL at 785-528-3105 or send donations to RCIL at P.O. Box 257 Osage City, KS 66523.
