Description

The Long Reach Comfort Wipe is an extended self-wiping toilet aide designed to assist people with disabilities, restricted range-of-motion and/or obese people with the highly personal yet extremely important task of wiping themselves after using the facility. The Long Reach Comfort Wipe wiping aide for obese and disabled individuals is ergonomically designed to help those who have trouble cleansing themselves after use of the restroom achieve an optimal degree of cleanliness without creating a mess in the process.

This unique toilet aide is 15.75" in length, and features a convenient release button to easily discard toilet paper/tissue, pre-moistened in a quick, sanitary manner.
Personal Hygiene: Long Reach Comfort Wipe Extended Toilet Tissue Wiping Aide
An argument can be made that the Long Reach is the top extended-reach toilet aide on the market, when one factors in its length, ergonomic design, comfortable surface and unique push-button release mechanism. Another reason the Long Reach Comfort Wipe is among the top-selling personal hygiene products in its class is due to its price, which is extremely reasonable at just $13.50 per unit, the EGAN Medical price. Other retailers, both online and in-store may and in all likelihood do charge more for the product, but customers can avoid paying extra by shopping at EganMedical.com as opposed to Walgreens or CVS, where the same items cost up to TWO and THREE TIMES AS MUCH!!!

This quality-of-life-enhancing bathroom device can be purchased directly from the website of Egan Medical Equipment, and can be found in both the "Personal Aids" and "Cleansing Products" categories.

Customer Review: Prenatal Cradle by It's You Babe

"On top of the speedy shipment and A+ service, their (EGAN's) price was about $12 less than the next best price I could find." ~ Desiree Lewis of Eugene, Oregon


My pregnancy was extremely difficult. There were a few complications, and I definitely think it was the most challenging period I've ever had to endure in life. The Prenatal Cradle by It's You Babe made my life SO MUCH easier I can't even begin to describe it.

My mom had bought my two other maternity supports before I ordered a prenatal cradle from Egan Medical. Neither of them helped, and one even caused me pain in one of the few places I wasn't already hurting.


Prenatal Cradle by It's You BabeThe prenatal cradle felt like it was custom-designed to fit my body. It provided support everywhere that I needed it, and really surprised me with how much it helped relieve pain and stress on my back. Every singly part of my body hurt less after a day wearing a PC than it did before I started wearing it. As I got further and further along in my pregnancy, the amount of relief this seemingly simple undergarment brought me just seemed to increase proportionately to the size of my breasts and belly.

I highly recommend this product for any woman who is pregnant and in pain, or even women who aren't in tremendous pain but would like to engage in more physical activity than they can without the help of a maternity support such as the prenatal cradle.

As for where to buy, I was obviously very pleased with my experience with Egan Medical Supply, or else I probably wouldn't be writing this review.

I'm a bargain hunter, and I also like to deal with companies I can trust will ship on time and provide service after the sale. Egan had my order in my mailbox within three days, and they even let me exchange my original order for a larger size and covered the cost of the replacement shipment. I didn't expect them to do that, but the people I spoke with were very friendly and obviously hooked it up.

On top of the speedy shipment and A+ service, their price was about $12 less than the next best price I could find. Not sure how this company makes money, but from a customer's standpoint - especially that of an expecting, newlywed mom-to-be who is not particularly wealthy and who has to make every dollar count - Egan Medical was a Godsend. The next time I need anything they sell, chances are I'm going to get it from them. Though the prenatal cradle and vitamins are all I've purchased from them, my experience was so uncommonly positive that I do consider myself a loyal customer and hope to remain one for a long time to come.

They gave me a coupon for free shipping on some prenatal vitamins. The vitamins were kind of expensive, but they were the same price everywhere else I looked, and from what I gather are very high quality and far superior to grocery store or drug store vitamins, which don't absorb well at all.

Long Beach (MS) New Home to EGAN Medical E-Commerce Fulfillment Center


EGAN Medical, a leading supplier of medical supplies, equipment, orthopedic, maternity care and other health care products has announced the grand opening of the company's newest addition, a shipping and e-commerce order fulfillment center located in downtown Long Beach, Mississippi. Unlike the company's long-established brick-and-mortar storefront in Covington, LA, the new facility will not be open to walk-in traffic. Rather, its purpose will be to serve as staging-grounds for the processing and shipping of orders, as well as a customer service center for internet-based shoppers. The medical equipment and supply firm's Covington storefront will remain open to walk-ins, while the Mississippi location will specialize in assisting online customers, promptly shipping online orders and managing the company's e-commerce inventory.

Long Beach was chosen as the location for the firm's second location due to its scenic beauty, warm, sunny weather and its proximity to the beach itself. EGAN Medical executive director Peter Egan has an outspoken fondness of the beach, sun and fishing, and Long Beach offered enough of all three to lure him away from Louisiana to the Mississippi coast for his personal residence. Rather than continue to commute three hours each day round-trip, Egan decided to place a stronger emphasis on e-commerce, opening the order fulfillment center just a four-minute drive from his home. This constitutes a dramatic transition in the firm's core business model, representing a brazen attempt to convert from being a strategically located brick-and-mortar medical equipment company located next to St. Tammany Parish Hospital to being a competitor on the national stage and on the internet.

Despite the company's increased emphasis on online sales and the opening of the new Mississippi coast facility, the changes do not amount to a move away from Louisiana or away from servicing the medical equipment and supply needs of Washington and St. Tammany Parish residents. A company spokesman issued a statement assuring Louisiana residents that the medical equipment store they've come to depend on will remain open for the foreseeable future, and that the company has no imminent plans for a permanent move, nor any plans to close the Louisiana storefront.

As always, shipping is free for Louisiana residents who select 'Free In-Store Pickup' from the shipping menu. Customers who choose to take advantage of this offer are asked to refrain from actually driving to the store to pick up their purchases. Virtually all orders placed online are shipped out within 1-2 business days of purchase, and customers who buy online will receive their items by mail or other home (or business) delivery. Across-the-board free shipping offer is only valid for residents of Louisiana and coastal Mississippi (counties which border the Gulf of Mexico).

Customers outside of Louisiana and Mississippi may still order online via the Egan Medical website, and Egan still offers shipping to all 50 U.S. states and Canada.

Egan Medical Customer Reviews

EGAN MEDICAL: Here's What Our Customers Have to Say About Us

The following are a collection of reviews by real Egan Medical Equipment customers. The reviews were not solicited in any way, shape, manner or form, and it is our belief that this sampling represents a snapshot of what customers have come to expect when ordering medical equipment, supplies and supplements from Egan, and what those who've not yet had the good fortune of doing business with us can expect upon placing their first order with us.

5/31/2012 5/5 Stars! "I have a physically disabled child and have found the incontinence and medical equipment obtained from Egan Medical Equipment & Supply to be of the highest quality and very affordable.  Of special note is the reusable bed pads that we have found to last through several years of use and washing.  Another invaluable product is the ReadyBath Basics disposable cleansing cloths that we use when full bathing is not feasible." Martha H. (Folsom, LA)
 
9/13/2012 5/5 Stars! "I ordered the Prenatal Pack prenatal vitamins from Egan Medical and was very happy with the product. I was concerned when I opened the box and saw the huge jar and then I found that the vitamins come in individually wrapped dosages. So I can just throw a few packs in my bag and I'm good to travel! Shipping was prompt. Service was not an issue. Overall good experience, great product, and more importantly excellent deal! I would do business again. I actually just ordered a few more pregnancy items."  Melissa M. (Slidell, LA)

I ordered two wrist braces from Eagan Medical, and I will definitely be doing business with them again.

While the braces I ordered didn't fit properly - an issue that appears to be the fault of the manufacturer as they use the manufacturer's measurement chart - the customer service was outstanding. They exchanged both braces for two new ones one size bigger at no cost to me. They paid for the return shipment (emailed me the label so I just had to print tape it to the same box they arrived in), and they also paid to ship me the replacements.

I received a response to the email I sent inquiring about the possibility of an exchange exactly one hour and eight minutes after I had sent it, and that same day I received another email with a tracking number for the shipment of the two replacements. They shipped the replacements the same day I emailed to ask if I could exchange the ones I ordered initially. I received the package the very next day.

Even though the prices were only about average, I will definitely do business with them the next time I need medical products. They shipped me the replacements with no guarantee that I would even return the first ones they sent me. I theoretically could have kept all four of them even though I only paid for two. I asked about this and was told that their priority was to make sure I had the medical supplies I needed as soon as possible, and that they trusted that I would in fact return the original order.

I've never heard of a company doing that. Normally, the way exchanges work is that the company ships when they receive the merchandise that is being exchanged, usually inspecting it before shipping out the replacements. While it might not be the best business practice, the fact that they placed my needs ahead of their own made a lasting impression, and I don't mind paying $1.50-$2.00 more when the service is as good as this.

Aside from the outstanding customer service and speedy delivery, the box contained a bunch of stuff I didn't order but found useful nonetheless. This included a handful of Biofreeze (a topical pain reliever) samples, a nail file with their company logo, a sample bottle of Ecotrin heart aspirin and a company ink pen. Sure, I didn't really need any of it, but it's the little things that really mean the most in life, and this company really made a positive impression on me.

There's nothing I hate more than sitting on hold, being transferred from person to person, none of whom are able, much less willing to help; the goal apparently being to encourage the customer to give up by wasting an hour (or more) of their time before letting them speak to anyone with the authority to fix a problem. Eagan Medical's customer service was the exact opposite of what I've come to expect from my cable company and from big internet companies. Probably the best service I've ever encountered from an internet-based business.  Katie S.  (Gulfport, MS)

So, the bottom line is that the next time we truthfully and accurately claim to be vastly superior to the meager nuisances who call themselves competitors, don't just take our word for it. Instead, why not listen to (or read) the actual testimony of a small sampling of the tens of thousands of customers we've satisfied without one single bona fide complaint.

EGAN Medical to Offer Special Pricing on Ebay

EGAN Medical has announced a plan to begin auctioning off various medical supplies, equipment and related healthcare products on the world's largest online auction site, Ebay.

The company recently opened a storefront on Ebay to compliment its existing standalone e-commerce website, and will be targeting the Ebay userbase with a variety of products spanning a number of categories. Products offered for sale through the company's Ebay storefront may feature special pricing below the already heavily discounted rate at which EGAN Medical products are usually available through the company's main website.

Some examples of products which sold recently or currently available for purchase through the EGAN Medical Ebay Store, entitled Egan Healthcare, are Littmann Master Cardiology Stethoscopes, various Crocs brand shoes, Prenatal Cradle maternity support undergarments and memory foam neck pillows. The aforementioned constitute only a small percentage of the total number of medical equipment and medical supply items available through the Ebay Store, and the goal of the store is to offer customers a fun way to save for those willing to invest the additional effort.

One customer was able to obtain the Littmann Master Cardiology Stethoscope for just $139.00 with free shipping. Any way you look at it, that's a great deal.

While not always the case, EGAN Medical frequently helps raise money for charitable purposes such as for the Muscular Dystrophy Association and the Safe Harbor Northshore organization. Safe Harbor provides shelter, food and other amenities for abused and battered women, children and victims of human trafficking.

In closing, EGAN Medical would like to encourage customers to have a look at it's Ebay Store. While no guarantees are offered, depending upon what it is you're looking for, there may well be some deals that are too good to pass up awaiting your arrival, but only while supplies last.

EGAN Medical Back to Full-Speed Following Hurricane-Soaked Week

While the past week-and-a-half have been extremely trying for EGAN Medical's ownership and all of its employees, we are pleased to report that while Hurricane Isaac left us soaked and without power, our facilities sustained no permanent damage from the storm, and we are now back at full capacity.

Unfortunately the same cannot be said for the homes of EGAN employees, some of whose homes took on considerable water as a result of Isaac's storm surge. Our hearts and prayers go out to those employees, and we eagerly (and patiently) await their arrival back at work.

In the meantime, we have managed to find temporary replacements for everyone whose homes were destroyed by Isaac's floodwaters, and we are pleased to report that EGAN Medical is now back at full operating capacity. Customers who had attempted to contact us during the downtime will be contacted by one of our representatives at some point today and tomorrow, and any customers who placed orders during the week disrupted by the Hurricane will be offered the option of receiving a refund instead of the scheduled shipment as a result of the prolonged downtime.

Eligible orders include those placed between Friday, August 24 and Thursday, August 30. Customers seeking a refund instead of a shipment due to the storm-related delays and who placed their orders between August 24 and August 30 are asked to make known their preference before the start of the work day Thursday, September 06. Emailed preference notifications received before 9:00 AM (central time) on September 06 will be honored provided they meet the specified eligibility criteria for the refund.

EGAN Medical would like to thank all of our customers for your patience, thoughts, prayers and understanding during this difficult time.
