URGENT: Surgical Masks Available, Responses Needed by 1:00 pm Today
RCPA has been contacted about the potential opportunity to order surgical masks (3-ply disposable mask with ear loop) for use in residential programs, homes, and outpatient settings. These are NOT N-95 masks which are used for inpatient settings. To understand the difference, view this flyer.
There are 220 masks in a box, available for $220/box, which includes shipping and are shipped directly to the provider. Delivery is expected within 15–20 days from the date the order is placed. You may request as many boxes as you need; however, we cannot guarantee the full order until all orders are received.
Please use this link to complete your request with the information we need. This is extremely time sensitive, so we are asking that each organization coordinate their order and submit by 1:00 pm TODAY.
