8 THE SURGICAL SUPPLY KIT A kit developed by the Norwegian Council of Health Preparedness The kit is estimated to cover the needs of medical disposable equipment for approximately 100 surgical inpatients for 10 days, particularly in the post operative phase. The kit contains all essential medical disposables; Bandages, compresses, drains, tubes, syringes, needles, catheters, infusion accessories, gloves, sutures, burn dressings, hygiene equipment, plaster of Paris and sterilization accessories. The kit was orginally designed for use in the Norwegian Health Preparedness, but is now widely used on an international basis. 8 DISASTER & RELIEF DEPARTMENT - MEDIQ NORWAY AS

9 THE NORCARE BED Equally suited for emergency conditions as for long term The NorCare Bed is a light weight bed, capable of enduring maximum stress and weight. In a field hospital setting, the high quality of the NorCare Bed makes it suitable for internal medical - as well as surgical inpatients. The height of 67 cm between floor and patient area facilitates getting in and out of bed for patient, and gives medical staff a good working position.the NorCare Bed measures only 5 cam in height before assembly. When looking to keep shipping costs down, this is an obvious advantage. 9
