Amazon Adds Nursing Homes, Assisted Living and Senior Living to PPE Priority List

Amazon Adds Nursing Homes, Assisted Living and Senior Living to PPE Priority List

LeadingAge Washington contacted Amazon and asked that long ten care providers be included along with hospitals in priority purchasing of COVID related supplies.  We just learned last night that Amazon listened and has extended this opportunity to nursing homes, assisted living and senior living.  You must have an Amazon business account to begin, if you are not signed up you can do so, at no cost,  here. Providers must then submit a form for their organization to get approved as a priority buyer; you can find that form here.  Some of the products available are facial shields, PPE (e.g. N95 masks), digital thermometers, ventilators, exam gloves and sanitizers.
