Walton Options HubScrub Event - Anderson - Oct 16
Walton Options for Independent Living, Inc. announces a new cleaning service to benefit the general public, people with disabilities, seniors, and other users of durable medical equipment (DME). In addition, this new service can also assist the local schools and daycare providers by disinfecting and sanitizing desks, chairs, toys, etc, helping to decrease … the spread of germs during this flu season. As a partner with the Southeastern Technology Access and Reuse Network (STAR), Walton Options accepts donated used equipment. The equipment is then cleaned, sanitized, and redistributed throughout South Carolina. This innovative program saves dollars, benefits the uninsured/underinsured, and promotes a greener alternative to landfill disposal by recycling the components.
To bring awareness to your community about the Cleaning Services of Walton Options and the STAR program, Walton Options will be providing cleaning services to the general public at the Disability Fair: Access Anderson - hosted by the Anderson Mayor's Committee on Disabilities on Friday, October 16, 2009 at the Anderson County Farmer's Market from 9 am-3pm.
Users and providers of durable medical equipment will have an opportunity to have their equipment inspected, cleaned and sanitized for a donation. This will allow the community a great opportunity to see the benefits of utilizing the service. We use a Hub Scrub machine designed to sanitize large items and large quantity of items. Some items that are typically sanitized are manual wheelchairs, walkers, shower chairs, toys, desks, and student chairs just to name few (no electronic devices). This is a win-win situation for everyone. It helps foster safe, clean equipment to benefit the overall well-being of all involved.
Bring your items to be cleaned.
Donate any unused durable medical equipment to help others in your community and state. We look forward to seeing you at the fair.
