TEMS has received a report today that Sentara is not able to stock (unknown if short or long-term) the BD ‘safety glide” 22G needles for the TEMS Med Boxes.
They will be re-stocking with another safety needle called the “eclipse”. Both are manual safety shields and both should be self-explanatory, but wanted to make sure all field providers are aware of this possible change.
