OCCK and its Solution Outreach Center have scheduled the second annual Durable Medical Equipment Recycling Week.
The collection event is scheduled to begin Monday and last until May 11.
OCCK urgently needs hospital beds, scooters, bedside commodes, bath transfer benches, walkers, and patient lifts. All donations will be sanitized and repurposed for children and adults with mobility needs.

Anyone from Saline, Ellsworth, Lincoln, Ottawa, Cloud, Jewell, Republic, Dickinson, and Mitchell counties with used durable medical equipment that they would like to donate may call 785-827-9383 and request a pick-up or drop-off appointment.
Last year's event produced 45 donated pieces of medical equipment. In 2021, OCCK provided 176 pieces of donated medical equipment to help children and adults with mobility needs.
