OVERVIEW

Penn Care, Inc. is a supplier of innovative medical products and services that aid in pre-hospital care and the treatment of life-threatening conditions. We are truly a "one stop shop" for all of your pre-hospital needs, offering products through each of our four major divisions.
 
FOUR MAJOR DIVISIONS

EMS Supply Division

Penn Care's EMS Supply Division distributes both disposable supplies and medical equipment to Fire Departments, Ambulance Services, Hospital Emergency Rooms, and First Aid units. Most of our products are used in emergency pre-hospital situations. Everything from intravenous (IV) kits, to traction splints and stretchers are handled through this division.

 
Ambulance Division


Penn Care's Ambulance Division provides high quality, custom-built emergency vehicles. We are an exclusive dealer for Braun and Medix ambulances in Ohio, Virginia, West Virginia, and selected areas of Pennsylvania. Any type of vehicle, from Mini Modular to Mobile Intensive Care units and remounts are handled in this division.


Disaster Response Division


The Disaster Response Division at Penn Care offers a variety of products to aid in managing a disaster or mass casualty incident. Everything from incident command systems and public safety products to DRASH shelters and Mass Casualty Incident Trailers are available in this division. The Mass Oxygen Distribution System, or MODS, is new to this division and can supply a large number of patients with oxygen in the event of a disaster.


Software Division

Penn Care offers the cutting-edge, web-enabled electronic Pre-hospital Care Reporting solution called emsCharts. This software is a comprehensive pre-hospital data collection, analysis, quality assurance, and reporting system. Unlike other systems that are capital-intensive and take months to train EMT/Paramedics, this solution requires no capital outlay and employees are field-ready after just 2-4 hours of training. All modules for emsCharts are simple, logical, and intuitive, minimizing training and optimizing speed and accuracy.


We also offer HC Standard®, the leading asset tracking and visualization package in the healthcare industry. It provides rapid user-customization across multiple platforms and serves as the electronic command center, allowing you to monitor healthcare assets, track patient progress, map available resources, provide a communication venue to staff and generate critical reports. HC Standard patient tracking software provides a fast and reliable way for first responders to gather data and collaborate with other members of their organization in near real-time.
