The Parachute Health Blog

As we near the end of year two of the COVID-19 pandemic, a shrinking population of caregivers in nursing homes and long-term care facilities combined with residents’ evolving healthcare needs underscores the importance of helping caregivers make the most of their time and labor. Parachute Health offers easy technology solutions for DME and supplies ordering that eliminate slow, boring administrative tasks and provide crystal-clear order tracking and visibility. Our supportive ordering tech stops the cycle of losing time to endless paperwork, reducing demands on caregivers so they can get back to what they do best: helping the people in their care.

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month, but people with diabetes have to monitor their disease year-round. Parachute Health’s seamless ordering workflow helps suppliers and clinicians communicate at every step, meaning faster order fulfillment for suppliers and less time lost by clinicians, so that they can focus on what matters most: treating the patients in their care.

Parachute Health’s own David Gelbard sat down with SmartTRAK’s Susan Paquette to discuss how the Parachute Platform came to be, the challenges he faced along the way, how our digital DME ordering tech benefits suppliers and vendors, and his hopes and plans for the future. 

November is COPD Awareness Month, and Parachute Health is proud to be enabling clinicians and suppliers as they connect patients to lifesaving respiratory care.
