My new feeding pump
Some of you may
already know that Quality Healthcare Equipment is
no longer able to service us for G-Tube feeding
supplies and we ran out of supplies for their
pump which was a Kangaroo 224 about a week ago
around Monday give or take a day or two. I
absolutely loved that Kangaroo 224, very quiet
and easy to use pump. We first tried switching to
one company which was a huge mistake, their
representative would not stop talking while we
were trying to convey my initial order and needs
and one of those needs was a quiet pump du to my
autism and sound sensitivity, he said that we
would get a Zevex Enteralite Infinity pump. They
lied, the next day they delivered a Novartis
COMPAT pump which was huge and loud and very
difficult to use. We tried it for a few nights
and i could not sleep with this monster pump
ticking and clicking in my ear. Last Friday they
finally delivered the Zevex Enteralite Infinty
pump which was a tiny and nearly silent pump, the
problem, they sent 500ml bags when I require
1000ml bags. Which were shipped with the first
pump. We got so sick of this we finally called on
Saturday to Apria’s emergency line and made an
emergency order which was delivered on Monday
night at 9:00 PM by a woman named Jill who was
very friendly got us set up, warehouse did not
give her the correct clamp for my pump model but
that was fixed on Tuesday. But for monday night
and Tuesday morning we had the pump duct taped
from the bottom to the rolling hospital table. I
love this pump like I loved my old one. If you
ever need a feeding pump ask for a Kangaroo pump,
they are the only pump I will ever use.
I will work on getting photos of it on the pole
tonight or tomorrow.
