Medical Equipment Donation
The Power of Giving
“Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others, you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness that you are able to give.” ―Eleanor Roosevelt
North Mississippi Medical Center's Rehabilitation Institute in Tupelo accepts new and used durable medical equipment to donate through its Second Time Around Program.
The program makes new and used medical equipment available to patients who may not have the funds to purchase needed items. Often, patients who are recovering from a stroke or other debilitating illnesses or injuries do not have insurance and cannot afford the medical equipment they need at home. Some items, especially bath equipment, are not paid for by many insurance policies, so even patients with insurance coverage often cannot afford them.
This program is ideal for families who have to purchase medical equipment or do not have the means to replace broken or worn items.
To donate items such as electric wheelchairs, shower chairs, walkers, canes, or crutches, call (662) 377-4058 or 1-800-THE DESK (1-800-843-3375).
