This is a tool that connects healthcare facilities, providers, and medical device and equipment suppliers across Canada to share excess medical devices and related equipment with those in need.

The purpose of this site is to

• Connect healthcare providers across the country in times of product shortages
• Find users in the country for excess medical devices so that we utilize products within the country
• Divert excess product from landfill

No medical devices are bought or sold on this website. People in need are connected with those who have extra. Transactions occur offline, per usual channels. Products can be borrowed, sold, or donated.

Medical devices offered must have valid MDLs and suppliers of medical devices must have valid MDELs.

Use Cases:

• Hospital X has run out of a certain graft with an incoming patient in need of the item. They cannot obtain any from their supplier. Hospital X posts on the ”Urgent Dashboard" to see if they can borrow or buy from another facility.
• Supplier Y has almost new demo equipment for sale at low prices and is looking for a buyer. Supplier Y posts the offer on the Dashboard.
• Hospital Z has renovated and would like to find a user for their barely used storage cabinets. They post their offer on the Dashboard.
• Hospital W has switched protocols and is not able to use up their leftover products. They post the offer on the Dashboard.
