The company has served as the hospital’s medical and surgical supplies partner for over eight years. The latest agreement is Medline’s first paediatric hospital laboratory prime vendor deal.
Dayton Children’s Hospital sourcing and supply chain corporate director David Farrall said: “Children’s hospitals have different needs than adult hospitals, so it’s imperative that we have the right guidance on which products to utilise and the alternatives, and overall visibility into what is and is not attainable.
“Medline has been able to do just that, and more, while being extremely attentive with great follow-up and bringing new ideas to the table.”
