About Us
What makes BLACKBURN'S different? Our level of care...
CUSTOMER CARE
BLACKBURN'S Central Intake department provides referral sources and patients with a streamlined method of placing multifaceted orders through one phone call. Realizing that your time is in demand, our goal is to reduce the amount of time needed when calling in an order. Additionally, we will confirm everything is in stock before you hang up the phone. If a shorted item is evident, you may immediately decide if a substitution is warranted. Comprehensive ordering results in comprehensive service and our customers, patients and caregivers have taken notice.
- Immediate 24-hour Emergency Service
- Automatic reorder notification for patients' medical and respiratory supplies
- BLACKBURN'S delivery and service technicians set up and train the patient and caregiver on the proper operation of home medical equipment
- FREE Delivery available through BLACKBURN'S mobile fleet or via UPS.
NOTE: The only departments NOT handled by Central Intake are Pharmacy and High-end Rehab Mobility. Please ask our receptionist to direct your call.
