Free Ostomy Supplies Available for UOAA Conference Attendees

This topic is about a generous initiative where two community members are offering free ostomy supplies to those who might need them. These supplies are available for pick-up at the UOAA National Conference in Orlando or can be mailed upon request. Here’s how you can benefit from this offer or contribute to it:

- Supplies are available for free, and you can pick them up at the UOAA National Conference in Orlando this August, or have them shipped to you.
- While no payment is required, small donations to cover postage are appreciated if there is a high demand for mailing.
- If you’re interested, send the exact product numbers you need to the donors so they can check their inventory before the conference.
- The supplies were originally donated by other ostomates, and the current donors are continuing this act of kindness by passing them on.

Additional Information:

1. As the conference date is approaching, it’s important to submit your requests soon.
2. If you have extra supplies, you can list them publicly or send them to the organizers to be distributed.
3. Here’s a snapshot of the current inventory available:
- Coloplast: SenSura Mio barriers, bags, and pouches.
- Brava (Coloplast): Protective barrier seals and moldable rings.
- Ostform: Flow Assist Seal.
- Genii: Ostomy Seal.
- Hollister: Adapt CeraRing, HolliHeasive skin barrier, and barrier seals.

Helpful Tips:

- A member traveling from Duluth to Mayo Clinic on July 17-18 can deliver supplies to anyone along that route.
- If you have extra supplies, consider listing them in the thread or sending them to the organizers to add to the master list.
- If you inherit supplies, consider offering them here, through local stoma nurses, or via an ostomy support group.
- At the Orlando conference, check if Salts (a UK manufacturer) has a booth and encourage them to expand their distribution in the U.S.
- To request items, message the donors with the exact product numbers you need. One of the donors has already posted a detailed inventory list that can be combined with the list above.
