180 Medical, the nation’s leading supplier of home-delivered catheters and ostomy supplies, has had a mission of helping turn lives around since the very beginning. Founder Todd Brown created 180 Medical with the goal of providing the very best service and supplies as well as ongoing support and tools for success like tips for learning how to cath and other helpful resources.
180 Medical’s Patient Advocates support team takes our mission to a whole new level by providing in-person and virtual care, encouragement, and resources.
Our Patient Advocates Team Provides In-Person and Virtual Support
Our Patient Advocates, Brendan and Steve, visit regularly with patients in children’s hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and other healthcare facilities across the country.
180 Medical Patient Advocate Steve has been living with a C6 spinal cord injury since he went through a car accident in 1988. He knows firsthand how it feels to be told that not only will you not walk again, but you also have to start using catheters.
180 Medical Patient Advocate Brendan was born with spina bifida. In the beginning, his parents faced a lot of challenges. Luckily, having person-to-person support and resources that could answer their questions made all the difference.
Personalized Support Can Make All the Difference
The Patient Advocates at 180 Medical use their experience navigating life with disabilities to provide personalized peer support through online video meetings and chats, whether in person or virtually. This one-on-one support can be crucial for helping patients adjust to using catheters while also finding the right product that works best for their unique needs.
Urinary catheters aren’t a one-size-fits-all medical supply. Using the wrong intermittent catheter can impact the overall quality of life. Plus, not knowing how to hygienically self-catheterize can lead to costly issues like recurring UTIs (urinary tract infections). That’s why having that in-person care from real people can be a life-changer.
180 Medical’s Patient Advocates support individuals while helping to ease the transition to home from rehab or the hospital. They can also be the caring connection many patients need and a great resource.
