University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC) Requesting Donations of PPE and Other Supplies

Due to the severe disruption of the PPE supply chain, the University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC) is urgently asking local dentists and other care providers for donations of personal protective equipment (PPE).

If your dental office has any extra PPE or other supplies that you will not need for emergency dental procedures, please consider making a donation. These items will protect your medical colleagues and front line health care responders at KUMC.

What healthcare professionals need to protect themselves:

  • ​Disposable gloves
  • Disposable face masks
  • N-95 respirator face masks
  • Disposable head covers/caps
  • Disposable gowns
  • Powered air purifying respirators (PAPRs)
  • Face-shields/goggles
  • Coveralls/scrubs
  • Shoe-covers
  • Disinfection wipes and liquids
  • General purpose hand cleansers

To make a donation, please contact Mike Feldkamp at mfeldkamp@kumc.edu.
