► What is the FUTURE impact of reuse and why is it important?
Increases the independence of consumers: Being able to access equipment (not covered by insurance, ineligible for funding, or no available funding) makes it possible for Nebraskans to be independent at home, school, and work.
Protects our environment: Every year over 2 MILLION TONS of medical waste is produced in the United States. This waste fills up our landfills and pollutes our ground water and air.
A network member says, "This group is definitely making a difference for equipment reuse in Nebraska!

Reuse is the term used to refer to recycled, reused, or repaired durable medical equipment (DME), adapted devices, or assistive technology.
Nebraska's ReUse Network has been hard at work since 2005. A statewide Nebraska Equipment Drive collected and shipped donations to hurricane Katrina survivors. Individuals who needed equipment after they had to evacuate or were injured during the storm, benefited from a donation of 100 wheelchairs, 162 walkers, 29 hospital beds and a variety of other items.
